Join us for the first ever five nations nursing and midwifery collaborative conference on sustainability.
Human activity is driving global warming at an alarming rate. Extreme temperatures, air pollution, drought and floods affect all nations – including the UK and Republic of Ireland.

This climate emergency is also a health emergency. As members of the nursing team and midwives, we must act now as a profession to safeguard our patients and services from the effects of a warming world.

This joint RCN and NHS England conference builds on the aspirations of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Join us as we raise awareness of the impact of care provision on greenhouse gas emissions, and explore the opportunities this challenge presents to improve health and care services.

All conference delegates are being offered an exciting opportunity to take part in a ‘Dragon’s Den’-style event to showcase nursing and midwifery led innovations that have a positive environmental impact on health and care service delivery and patient care. Find out more.

This conference is free and open to anyone working in nursing or midwifery in all care settings.

Delegate places for this conference are limited. If you’re unable to attend, please contact the Events Registration team to cancel your place. This way, we can offer it to someone else should the event become fully booked.
