SAFE STAFFING SAVES LIVES
Is this the longest picket line of the #RCNStrike? @theRCN Hard to tell! @SouthTees members, you've done us proud! Thank you for enduring freezing conditions today and thank you for enduring unsustainable pressures at work every day. #SafeStaffingSavesLives#FairPayForNursing
Today our members' made history.
To all those who joined picket lines and stood in solidarity with nursing staff, thank you.

#RCNStrike#FairPayForNursing#NursesStrike

Share this if you stand with those fighting for a safer future for nursing, patients, and the NHS.
