This is really good news. Its concerning that in the UK anyone can call themselves a nurse and offer nursing services even if they have no qualifications, have been struck off or convicted
Fully support this bill

Dawn Butler MP @dawnbutlerbrent.bsky.social · Feb 5

🚨NEW: On Tuesday 11th February, I will introduce a Ten Minute Rule Bill seeking to make ‘nurse’ a protected title in UK law.

Pleased to have support from and build on the vital Protect Nurse campaign. #ProtectNurse

VWD is NOT like haemophilia - The Haemophilia Society

People with VWD often compare it to haemophilia to try to help others understand tit, but it's time to give VWD the recognition it deserves.
