- Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust

Our vision
As a branch of the RCN, we are committed to providing a friendly and supportive resource for its members and representatives. Confidentiality and professional integrity are the key foundations of our work.
Our aims are to:
- promote creative engagement with the local and national nursing community, through proactive leadership and effective communication
- work with our members in a mutually respectful manner, recognising when we can contribute and the times when our contribution may be limited
- be catalysts in learning and development for our members, making sure that all meetings and events are organised and relevant to current practice.
