At CNWL, we want to celebrate and renew perceptions of the nursing profession among our mental health, community, offender care and addiction services throughout the Trust. Nurses make a real difference and that is more evident now, more possibly than ever before, in the midst of Covid-19. 

This page is dedicated to sharing the stories from our own nurses, to celebrate what they do; showcase different specialities and the skills needed in the diverse environments the Trust offers, and to help share good practice. We want to encourage new people to join the nursing profession and for the fantastic nurses working with us already, to stay.

Read stories and see our celebrations from 2020 for Year of the Nurse, International Nurses Day and Mental Health Nurses Day, or catch up with CNWL colleagues from across our wide nursing family who reflect on their careers and why they decided to become a nurse.

Chief Nurse, Maria O’Brien says:

"Nursing is a fantastic profession which gives people a chance to make a real difference and I want to showcase the vast array and skill of our nurses across CNWL.”
