Become a community contributor

Share your advice, stories, opinions and inspiration for your co-workers on the nurses community platform. Find out how you can join our community of contributors.

Our community is people like you

Nurses.co.uk is a platform where nurses, midwives, care home managers, students and care professionals can have their voice heard by thousands of others.

You can share your specialist insights, career stories, advice, opinions and knowledge - and it will help, inspire or reassure a fellow co-worker elsewhere in the UK or beyond.

It's quite simple: we welcome nurses, midwives, care professionals, students and home managers to share what you know.

Since we launched in 2008 we've published hundreds of articles, videos and podcasts contributed by our community.

Share advice, stories, opinions and inspiration

Do you have anything to say about nursing, midwifery or care home management?

Here's some more information about us

We're a small business, based in South Devon (our registered company address that you see on our Facebook page and in the footer of this site is near Brighton).

The site was started by myself and a close business partner, Tim, in 2008.

nurses.co.uk began simply as a website to list jobs for nurses and care home managers.

In 2010 I started writing articles.

We then started receiving submissions by nurses who asked if we would publish their articles.

We thought that would be a great idea and it evolved from there.

We now have almost 1000 articles, blogs, videos and audio / podcasts.

No, we're not like a social media platform. It's not a free-for-all. We take time evaluating if a piece is relevant to our audience, and then we run the usual publishing processes of checking, proof reading, editing and preparing for live publication.

We are a small team and we want our site to be a useful, curated library of work - we are a publishing platform run by real humans who care.

We look forward to hearing from you.
