Petition: Fund a full bursary and maintenance fund to train Learning Disability Nurses
At a time when the demand across health and social care is so high, numbers entering the LD nursing profession are too low. To halt this decline, support the profession with a full bursary and maintenance fund. Now is time for action.

I've added a lot of new contacts today. I've made starter packs for RNLDs and Student LD Nurses, one for neuroscience nurses, and a list for RNLDs and students. Feel free to look from my profile to see if there are any you want to follow. If you want adding to any of these let me know which ones
