If you have an event you would like the RCN to put on for you and your colleagues, why not email the student team at students@rcn.org.uk and we'll see what we can do.
RCN Students magazine
Twice a year RCN student members receive a free copy of RCN Students, the RCN magazine for students, which is packed with articles and information relevant to your studies and your life. Take a look at feature articles from the latest edition of RCN Students.
National Union of Students membership
The NUS represents your interests at university, while the RCN's professional advice and representation plays a key role during your clinical placements and vocational work. Together we further your cause on a national level and tackle the issues that matter to you.
The RCN and NUS have formed a partnership agreement to make sure you get the best of both organisations. Nursing and midwifery students are automatically made members of their university student union, which is usually affiliated to the NUS.
