The GAT Committee has its origins in 1967 as the Associates in Training Group and exists to represent the interests of trainee anaesthetists across the UK & Ireland. We have members sitting on the Councils of the Association and Royal College, together with representation on many other committees including the ICS Trainees Division and the JDC.

GAT now has a membership encompassing over 95% of all anaesthetic trainees, some 3500 individuals in all. GAT members account for around one third of the total membership of the AAGBI. The GAT Committee can only voice your opinion if we know what it is. We welcome comments, queries and ideas. Please get in touch: gat@aagbi.org
