Have your say
Share your views on nursing issues and influence decision makers
Find opportunities to take part in our consultations, ballots, surveys and elections and influence decision makers.
Remember, not all opportunities to have your say can take place online. Statutory ballots about industrial action, as well as elections for Council, President and Deputy President, must take place by post. In those cases, if you're eligible to vote, we'll let you know by email and our independent election partner will send you your voting papers in the post using the information on your MyRCN record.
You must be an RCN member and meet our eligibility criteria to vote in our consultations, ballots and elections.

As well as using your own vote, you can also help get out the vote and encourage other members to use their voices.

Support student nurses, protect the future of nursing
We need more nurses. But the financial pressure on students today is pushing too many away from nursing.
Will you add your name and call on governments across the UK to commit to review the financial support available for nursing students?
