North West

Welcome
From the South Lakes to South Cheshire, and from Chester to the Pennines, the RCN North West region represents more than 48,000 members, making us the third largest region of the RCN in terms of membership numbers.
Our world is constantly changing. Health care delivery in the UK is undergoing massive reorganisation, and even within the RCN we are facing the challenge of change, as we seek to revitalise our branches and to integrate our activities as a professional trade union.
Against this background it is important we are open and transparent about what we are doing for members; and members can play an active part in influencing those changes that affect them.
That's why this website is key in communicating with members and the public. You can find all you need to know about the RCN team in the regional office in Bolton, as well as your regional board and your local RCN branch. You'll also find up to date local and regional news, information about events, as well as matters of interest to you as both a professional and employee.
Contact us
RCN North West is committed to providing members with a first class service as we seek to deliver the RCN's mission of "representing nurses and nursing, promoting excellence in practice and shaping health policy".
I trust you find the North West section useful. And don't forget to let us have your views about our service by emailing our office on: northwest.region@rcn.org.uk.
