Great excitement as many head to London for our Anniversary Banquet Merchant Taylors' Company this evening. We say thank you to our outgoing Master and install Hilary Andrews as our new Master. We will dine in splendour & pass our lamp in fellowship. So very proud to be 111 in the Livery.


WCoN represented nurses at the VE Day Evensong Service St Paul's Cathedral yesterday with emergency services & armed forces. Master & six Company nurses heard readings & music celebrating resilience & fortitude of the people of London 1945 & today. The Master read a prayer.





Commemorative Service Westminster Abbey this evening. Very moving celebrating life of Flo Nightingale. Also remembered nurses who lost their lives during World Wars & nurses, midwives, nursing assocs & support workers who selflessly provided care during the COVID-19 pandemic.






The Master joined the Lord Mayor and Livery friends to recognise and support our Armed Forces during Armed Forces Week. Flag raising at this time Guildhall London is such a moving City tradition. So proud to be there.


Rain will not dampen our excitement as we head to Mansion Hse to receive official Letters Patent from Lord Mayor of London, Alastair King this morning. Such a special ceremony confirming WCoN as 111 in the Livery movement. A very special day ahead for nurses everywhere.
