What is an AGM?
Your Branch AGM is the perfect time to review the year and plan activities for the coming year. It is an opportunity to welcome new members and decide on a committee structure. Any member of a branch can stand for one of the governance roles and if a role is contested an election may be held.
Governance roles
Each Branch must have a chair, treasurer and secretary. What these roles involve is set out here.
Taking on one of these roles is a brilliant opportunity to gain some personal development and you will be supported by the RCN when you start. If you are interested in one of these roles, then please fill out this form before the AGM.
Representatives
If you are an accredited rep, the AGM is the time when the branch will decide to retain your accreditation, or in some rare cases, disaccredit you. For this reason, it is important you make every effort to attend.
The RCN is proud of the diversity of the UK’s nursing workforce and our membership. It is important to us that nominations are encouraged from under-represented groups in our governance structures including those who identify as women, members from the Global Majority, LGBTQ+ community and those with a disability, as well as from members working in any sector, whether employed by the NHS, independent health and social care employers, or the third sector.
