Greater Bristol

The RCN Greater Bristol branch works across the NHS, independent and third sectors. We deliver local RCN services to members and provide you with opportunities to shape the RCN’s work. Our local representatives are your first port of call if you need to talk to someone about a workplace or professional issue and you can contact them through RCN Direct on 0345 772 6100.

The branch is its members, so why not come along to one of our meetings to find out what we do and how you can get involved?
All members are very welcome to attend, as well as those interested in joining the RCN on the day.

If you are an RCN member working in the Greater Bristol area, you are invited to join our closed Facebook group.
