Get involved

It is a time of enormous change and branch meetings are an opportunity to network with colleagues from a variety of settings, give and receive support and also voice any issues affecting your work area which can then be fed back to RCN South West by our board representatives. Do come along and meet your new branch officers. All RCN members are welcome.

If you work with someone who isn’t a member of the RCN but who might be interested please contact Ali Mountjoy for information leaflets and application forms or alternatively bring them along to a branch meeting. Don’t forget that RCN membership is available for registered nurses and health care assistants.
