Throughout the pandemic, the country has witnessed the most impressive demonstration of nursing, seeing it as a highly skilled profession deserving of fair pay. Without the nursing profession, we would not be where we are today.  

But the Fair Pay For Nursing campaign is about more than our response to COVID-19.  

The Fair Pay For Nursing campaign is about: 

recognising the complexity of skill, responsibility and experience demonstrated every day, by nursing support workers, assistant practitioners, nursing associates, registered nurses and all members of the profession.  

making sure that a safety critical profession can reach safe staffing levels and fill tens of thousands of unfilled nursing jobs. recognising that the salaries of too many nursing professionals has not kept pace with increases to their living costs over the past decade.  

Ultimately, the Fair Pay For Nursing campaign is about providing safe and effective care for all people of the United Kingdom.
