Royal College of Nursing switches this year’s meeting to a virtual event in order to ‘protect’ its members
The Royal College of Nursing has said its annual conference will be held online only following “serious allegations of sexual harassment”.
The union, which represents some 465,000 health workers, said that after “independent legal advice” the elected members of its council had decided to “move this year’s meeting to a fully virtual event”. The union says the decision was not taken lightly and was needed to “protect” members.
