Annual Conference

BANCC hold an annual study day with engaging talks and sessions. The 2025 Annual Conference will be held in Liverpool on 25/04/2025. Attendees are invited to submit abstracts and posters for the event.

Professional Development Fund

BANCC recognises the importance of professional development and education. To support ongoing development of cardiovascular nurses, 20% of BANCC membership funds are made available annually to the BANCC Professional Development Fund (PDF). The PDF provides an opportunity for BANCC members to secure financial support for professional development. This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Funding to support attendance of a national or international conference relevant to cardiovascular nursing (for example: BANCC Annual Conference, British Cardiology Society Annual Conference, Association of Cardiovascular Nursing & Allied Professions Annual EuroHeartCare Congress).

  • Funding to support study days relevant to cardiovascular nursing.

  • Funding to complete educational relevant cardiovascular nursing modules or training.

The PDF offers BANCC members the opportunity to apply for funding to enhance their knowledge and skills in cardiovascular nursing. This is a competitive process covering all activities which aim to support cardiovascular nurses in the continued professional development.

“At BANCC council we have been working really hard to transform our educational activities and resources to better meet the needs of our members and help grow the membership. We would love to hear feedback and suggestions from members regarding all our work including our educational activities”
