This week, I attended the Midlands Strategy Deliberative Event. It was wonderful to meet colleagues at different stages of their career, from different sectors. Collaboration is at the heart of the strategy and we’re grateful for the time that they took to get involved.

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.

Developed in partnership with @LancsHospitals, the new Research toolkit for matrons and other health and care leaders is the latest resource to support the implementation of the CNO for England’s strategic plan for research. #teamCNO www.england.nhs.uk/long-read/re...
