Advanced Nurse Practitioner Forum
For members working in advanced roles across the NHS and independent sectors
We aim to raise awareness of advanced nursing practice across England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales, while supporting nurses who are already working, or aspiring to work, at an advanced level.
CYP: Acute and Emergency Care Forum
This forum is under revision and will be relaunched in January 2026 as the CYP: Acute and Emergency Care Forum. The focus will be on the care of the acute or critically ill child from birth across all medical and surgical specialities, in hospital and transport services, together with professional issues common to all CYP nursing. For more information see: CYP Forum steering committee appointments.
