OUR AMAZING DELEGATES: CARING BEYOND WALLS 2026

I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks and
appreciation to our incredible delegates who
have joined us in London for the Global Nursing
Conference 2026, Caring Beyond Walls.
This year, we have had the privilege of welcoming
community and home care nurses from 32 countries,
representing a remarkable breadth of expertise,
experience, and specialisms.

We are especially grateful to our valued partners,
the Association of District Nurse & Community
Nurse Educators (ADNE) and City St George’s,
University of London, whose support and collaboration
have helped make this event such a success.

As we reflect, we leave not only with new knowledge
and professional connections, but also with
renewed energy and commitment to continue
transforming care beyond walls. The challenges facing
healthcare are significant, but the passion, innovation,
and dedication demonstrated by our delegates give us
great confidence in the future of community and
home care nursing.
