Professional body
Plain English definition
From:
Think Local Act Personal (TLAP) Jargon Buster
An organisation that represents a group of people who are all part of the same profession, such as doctors or social workers. A professional body supports its members and may also make sure that the work they do is of a high enough standard. If you are unhappy with something that an individual professional has done, you may be able to complain to their professional body.
