Why a Livery Company:

How do we leave a legacy to the nursing profession, whilst also wishing to contribute to the professional development of its members?

From their earliest days, the Livery Companies emphasised the importance of good training, education and benevolence.

We believe that with the support of the City we can achieve our objectives:

to promote and uphold the nursing profession, its standards of excellence and integrity;
to raise public awareness of the nursing profession;
to promote, administer, and contribute to the Company of Nurses Charitable Trust;
to provide for the meeting in fellowship of those who join the Company;
to maintain the traditions of the City of London and support the Lord Mayor and the Aldermen.
