72 hours left- This is our finest moment.
Dear all,
First of all, thank you for everything you have done so far for this campaign. You have voted, shared information, spoken to colleagues, reminded friends, and encouraged a lot of members to take part. Every single effort matters.
But we are not there yet.
We have just 72 hours left to secure continuity for the work we have been doing over the past 20 months.
This is our opportunity to lead RCN with the right goals, the right priorities, and the right values at the heart of our organisation. The values and priorities that matter to people like us. People who wake up every morning, go to work, care for our patients, come home to look after our families, and contribute to the communities we live in.
If you believe in safe staffing, strong salaries, and properly supported students, now is the time to act.
Please pick up your phone today.
Call one colleague or friend and ask:
“Have you voted yet?”
If they haven’t, gently remind them to do so. Then make another call. Ask them to check with their colleagues, friends and networks too.
One phone call can lead to another.
One reminder can make the difference.
Every vote matters.
Let’s reach as many people as we possibly can before 3 September. If someone is still waiting for their ballot, share the information they need to obtain it and make sure they know how to vote.
Let’s finish what we started.
Let’s do it for our profession.
Let’s do it for our colleagues.
Let’s do it for our future.
