About the event
The aim of the Time Out Day is a 5 year forward plan and general objectives for the League. In the current climate many nurses leagues are closing and the NNUHL is active and are keen to ‘keep going’. Hence the trustees are meeting to look at ways in recruiting present N&N Nurses into the League and maintain finacial security for the future.
The Norfolk and Norwich Old Nurses' League was formed in 1930 with the Countess of Leicester as patron and Mrs. E.O. Jackson, who was Matron of the Norfolk and Norwich Hospital from 1926 to 1939, as president. Its aims were to keep former nurses in touch with each other and the Hospital through a journal and an annual reunion.
Membership is open to all registered nurses who trained at the Hospital or who have worked there for a minimum period of three years or more.
In 1984 the League became a registered charity with the object of helping members, their spouses, and other dependents that are in a condition of need.
Since 2014 the objectives include the education of the public and nurses about the history of nursing in the Norwich area.
The title of the League has changed a number of times over the years: with the designation of the N&N as a university hospital the League arrived at its current name, the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital Nurses League.
