The UK Learning Disability Consultant Nurse Network (UKLDCNN) identified an annual day to celebrate learning disability nurses and raise the profile of their profession as a positive career choice. We have worked in conjunction with the UK and Ireland based Learning/Intellectual Disability Nursing Academic Network (LIDNAN).

Learning Disability Nurses Day is on the 1st November.

SWAY is a collection of information/resources from the UKLDCNN and LIDNAN to promote learning disability nursing across all four countries, click here for more: Learning Disability Nursing a wonderful career (office.com)
