What a wonderful day for the nursing profession, of whom we are so proud, which has finally become the 111th Worshipful Company in the City of London.
Our Former MP – the Rt Hon Anne Milton, was present for a moment in history as the nursing profession of which she is so proud was recently awarded the Worshipful Company by the Court of Alderman in London.
The Founders at the Guildhall heard the Court of Alderman award the status of Worshipful Company to the Nursing Profession with the backing of the City and their fellow Freemen.
It was such an honour and a moment in history for our profession. We so appreciate the support we have had from the City & from our Freemen.”

Said Liz Fenton OBE, QN. “Congratulations and what a fabulous acknowledgement of all the great work of the famous 8. What an achievement- onwards now & upwards.”
Congratulations have poured in from all over the country – and from fellow Aldermen.
Said one. I was delighted to have been present in the Court of Aldermen today to support the resoundingly unanimous decision of the Court to grant @CompanyNursesfull livery status. Congratulations to all of the Company’s members and all who have worked so hard to get to this point!”
Many congratulations! We were all delighted to unanimously support granting full Livery status. A historic moment. Looking forward to supporting the company in the years ahead.
