RCN students community

The Royal College of Nursing supports your studies, represents your rights and offers advice. We are the biggest professional union for nurses and nursing in the UK for a reason.

Check your details

We communicate regularly with our student members both by email and post. However we receive many bounce backs and much returned mail which would suggest that some of you are not receiving this communication. If you have not received, by post, your RCN Students magazine within the last three weeks then there may be a problem with the address we have for you.

Check your details are up to date on MyRCN to make sure you get the latest updates. This is particularly important for those about to graduate if your graduation date has changed from the one you originally supplied to us.

Congress 2013

Congress is now over but you can catch upon what happened on the Congress webpages: www.rcn.org.uk/congress 

The Willis Commission report

The independent Willis Commission has now published its full report, Quality with Compassion: the future of nursing education. The report is available on the Commission website. Lord Willis said students' "ability to articulate their ambitions and their desire to nurse was awe-inspiring". We would welcome your comments and thoughts to students@rcn.org.uk

Further help

Your student team and your local student information officers are all here to help signpost you to the help you need. You can also contact RCN Direct, our telephone helpline, on 0345 772 6100.
