We're doing something different to celebrate Pride in London this year. Why not join us?
Pride, Power and Nursing
We're inviting RCN members in England to our special in-person event at RCN headquarters on 19 June to mark Pride. This event is being hosted by RCN London region. We’re exploring the theme of “Pride, Power and Nursing” and you can expect a jam-packed line-up. Come along, hear inspiring stories, and help us celebrate the LGBTQ+ community in nursing.
Places are limited so book your place now. Book your place using the 'book now' button above.
Who can attend?
The event is open to all RCN members in England. Whether you are part of the LGBTQ+ community, an ally or want to learn more, we want to see you there. Please note, on this occasion the RCN unfortunately cannot provide travel expenses for this event.
What can you expect?
Our programme includes:
•A keynote speech from Vanessa Sweeney, Chief Nurse, University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust
•Interactive sessions with RCN members sharing their experience of nursing whilst being LGBTQ+
•An educational session focusing on the critical role of nursing in trans healthcare
•And finally hear from author and broadcaster, Matt Cain MBE, on why being gay is the best thing that happened to him
Plus, you'll get a free lunch, refreshments and Pride in Nursing goodies to take home with you, and everyone who attends will receive a certificate of learning.
We want you to leave the event feeling excited, empowered, connected and even prouder of who you are and what you do.
