An update from the RCN on our use of X. bit.ly/3w0oSAe
ALT We have committed as an organisation to be fully inclusive, anti-racist and anti-discriminatory. We have decided an active presence on X is now at odds with our organisational values and we have taken the decision to no longer post on this channel. If you are a member or are interested in the work of the RCN, please follow us on other social media channels.
