The new Queen’s Nurses piped into the hall and led by retired Queen’s Nurse Joan Peden. Not only the 2021 and learning disability nurse cohorts but also the 2020 cohort who had to celebrate virtually last year. #QNISawards

And this is a very special year indeed. Tonight, we celebrate over 100 modern Queen’s Nurses in Scotland. In fact, we now have 110 #ExtraordinaryQNs working as changemakers in Scotland’s communities. They're all there, how many can you spot?

Guest speaker Brendan McCormack shares his joy of being a part of the Queen's Nurse Development Programme. Read the Robert Gordon University (RGU) evaluation on the programme here: bit.ly/3xizPd8 #QNISawards

QNIS awards night. Congratulations to 2021 cohort on receiving their awards and for 2020 cohort to get together to celebrate in person. QNIS NHS DG

Thank you so much for this what a lovely surprise. I have enjoyed supporting QNIS and facilitating the Queen’s Nurse Programme for the last 5 years.

This is my son, Benedict. He died yesterday, suddenly, aged 5. I just want everyone to know that he existed, and to see his beautiful smile and know how wonderful he was. He was such a bright spark, the kindest boy. His time with us was the greatest gift 💔

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II has died at the age of 96. The patron of many charities, including the Queen’s Nursing Institute Scotland, her involvement with QNIS brought essential recognition. Her Majesty always placed particular importance on public and voluntary services.

There are 150 contemporary Queen's Nurses in Scotland. We want to see this network of changemakers continue to grow. It is thanks to the generosity of our funders that the programme is able to continue and society can benefit from the leadership and expertise of Queen's Nurses.
