IAH Annual Report 2022

Strengthening and supporting

The Association has increased its presence across the world and we now have members in 137 countries as well as more national chapters, which is a welcome development. The number of corporate supporters has also increased. Growth in membership though has not yet recovered momentum since the onset of the Covid pandemic. Membership fell across nearly all regions and fell back to under 4100, having undergone a significant recovery to 4250 during 2021. The fall in membership appears to relate to retention of members rather than recruiting new members.

Subscription costs are covered by IAH central and chapter funds. Our mentoring programme continued to be popular with 25 younger members seeking an experienced mentor to help with advice on development of knowledge and career direction.
