Northumberland Tyne and Wear AGM and learning event
08 Oct 2024, 13:00 - 16:00
Choose event information:
Please support your branch AGM, which will also include a learning session on the RCN Nursing Workforce Standards, presented by RCN Professional Lead (Nursing Workforce) Lena Johnson. We are holding this event at the new Health and Care Academy at NSECH in Cramlington.
The Nursing Workforce Standards are a tool that can help keep you your patients and your colleagues safe at work.
Branch AGM and executive committee roles up for nomination
The day will incorporate our branch AGM too, so you can get involved in ensuring our reps are ratified for another year, and electing our branch executive committee - or going for a position on it.
We have the following vacancies coming up in our branch, for a term of office from 1 January 2025 to 31 December 2025: President, Chair, Vice Chair, Secretary, Treasurer, and one executive committee member. (This member could focus on a particular aspect of branch affairs, such as EDI, communications, students, nursing support workers, or anything you want).
Have a read of our 'Branch role descriptor' poster or the more formal governance document going into a bit more detail, as well as our branch election procedure and see if you are tempted to get involved.
If you are, please submit a nomination form to northern.region@rcn.org.uk by Monday 23 September 2024 identifying which seat you are interested in standing for and for which branch.
You must send in their expression of interests into the northern regional office in advance of the AGM and only if no one has put themselves forward before the AGM can anyone then be invited to do so at the AGM itself.
Those who fill a nomination form in and submit it before the meeting take precedence over those who self-nominate on the day.
While there is a time commitment involved and you do have to volunteer during your leisure time, being on our executive could lead you to some interesting places and people you might otherwise never have encountered. It could also give you some skills and experience that stand you in good stead both personally and professionally.
