While many nurses will be heading for the picket line over the next couple of months as they head out on more strike action, there will be many bystanders at home who wish to do their part to support the cause.
The Royal College of Nursing has announced strikes will take place on January 18 and 19 with nurses from 55 different NHS trusts. It says that if the Government refuses to open formal negotiations on nurse wages, then they will call for further strike days for more trusts next month.
RCN General Secretary & Chief Executive Pat Cullen said: “People aren’t dying because nurses are striking. Nurses are striking because people are dying.”
