Forum fever.
The RCN has consulted widely on its review of the professional membership structure and its preferred option will be put before the council this month. But not all the forums are in wholehearted support. The RCN has 76 RCN forums and 46 subgroups. RCN members can join any three forums. About 80 per cent of members are not active within the organisation. By redesigning the professional development framework it is hoped more members will become active. Members say they want more professional activity at local level.
