Representing RCN members at the European Federation of Public Service Unions' 11th Congress
The European Federation of Public Service Unions (EPSU) represents 8 million public service workers across Europe and has significant influence over the policies and decisions of employers, governments and institutions. The RCN, as a major membership stakeholder, sits on the executive and the EPSU Congress is held every five years. This year the event was held over three days in Bucharest, Romania, and I attended representing the Professional Nursing Committee as Vice Chair alongside three delegates: Denise Kelly, Dennis Greer and Jackie Davies representing the RCN Trade Union Committee, and Brian Morton, RCN Associate Director for Employment Relations.

Handing over the baton
In 2018 a casual vacancy arose on the UK Stewards Committee (UKSC), and someone was needed to take on this role for the South West. I had not long completed training to be an RCN steward and felt that maybe I was not experienced enough in the ways of the RCN to take on this responsibility, but I thought about it and spoke to my Branch Chair, Vicky Brotherton. With her encouragement, I did submit my application, and left the decision in the hands of the members of the South West region. I was delighted when they put their trust in me and voted me on to the committee.
