51ºÚÁÏÍø Nottinghamshire Branch



If you're an 51ºÚÁÏÍø member working in Nottinghamshire, you're automatically a member of our Nottinghamshire branch. Welcome to your nursing community.

Our branch includes members working at NHS, independent, higher education and care home employers, as well as students.

Getting involved in our branch means more than attending meetings. Whether you’re organising for better conditions, supporting a colleague or pushing for systemic change, your involvement helps turn shared concerns into collective action.

All branch events

Our branch annual general meeting (AGM)

Every year, our branch holds its annual general meeting (AGM). We review our branch activity over the past twelve months, before mapping out what we want to achieve over the next year. It's also a chance to discuss with your fellow branch members the issues which are most important to you right now.

This is your chance to help set the nursing agenda. Details of the next AGM will be posted in the events section as soon as available.




Our branch and 51ºÚÁÏÍø Congress

Branches play a key role in 51ºÚÁÏÍø Congress. Our members can submit debate topics for the annual conference, which are then discussed and voted on by the wider membership, influencing the 51ºÚÁÏÍø's future work.

All members can attend 51ºÚÁÏÍø Congress for free. There are also fully funded voting places for members, where travel, accommodation and food are provided. Voting members are there to listen, participate and vote on resolutions that are proposed by 51ºÚÁÏÍø branches, forums and committees across the UK.

This year's applications for funded voting places are closed. Details of 2026 funded places will be posted here as soon as available.

    Ethical Responsibilities of Nurses: Exploring Lessons from History

    The study of nurses' roles during the Nazi regime is not just a historical enquiry but a crucial learning opportunity for nursing students. It significantly shapes the understanding of the ethical responsibilities inherent in the profession and serves as a stark reminder of the devastating consequences when caregivers fail to protect life.
