The NMC register primary aim is to regulate the practices of the nurses and midwives. In the current climate of COVID-19, nurses and other allied health and social care professionals continue in the duties as frontline staff helping the nation to contain, treat and support infected patients; as well as providing mental and emotional wellbeing support to the wider population.

The year 2020 is meant for celebrating the international year of the nurse and midwife is now a year of international mourning.

To continue to support our frontline staff, we are pleading to the UK parliament to appeal to the ‘Nursing and Midwifery Council’ to waive 2020’s annual registration fee of £120 as a gesture of their continuous support for the profession.
