National Colorectal Cancer Nurses Network
We're passionate about working closely with colorectal nurses to improve care for people with bowel cancer.
We actively support the National Colorectal Cancer Nurses Network (NCCNN) and encourage all colorectal clinical nurse specialists, endoscopists and specialist screening practitioners across the UK to join.
Membership is free and you'll become part of a strong and determined community working to improve the lives of people affected by bowel cancer. Benefits include:
- Regular e-newsletters
- Invitations to our virtual and face to face education events
- Access to the most up to date information resources
- Opportunities to get involved with our services development
- Access to the NCCNN Facebook group
How being part of the NCCNN has helped our members:
- “It’s so important to feel part of a network of professionals. It is an invaluable network for learning about the speciality and for sharing common issues”
- “The education events have given me better understanding and increased my confidence in talking with patients about different issues”
- "Good access to up to date treatments and management of patients has allowed us to develop our straight to test service and facilitated my application for my new role”
- “It's allowed me to be more informed about certain aspects which I’ve been able to share with patients in order for them to make an informed choice.”
