We’ve been meeting with nurses, midwives and nursing associates up and down the country to hear about their experiences, hopes and ideas for the future of our professions, that will inform the Professional strategy for nursing and midwifery.

If you are a registered nurse, midwife, nursing associate or student, we need your help to develop a professional strategy for Nursing and Midwifery in England. Complete this Survey www.engage.england.nhs.uk/survey/profe... by 29th Sept to share your experiences, aspirations and ideas. #teamCNO
