Welcome/Croeso to Upsilon Xi at Large chapter!

As chapter President I am delighted to welcome you to our chapter. We have been a chapter since April 2008 and are located at Swansea University, with Cardiff university as a partner, in South Wales, UK. We were the first chapter to be chartered in the UK and the third in Europe. If interested, please look at the tab titled `Our Chapter’ on the menu bar to learn more about our chapter history.

Although located in Wales we have a diverse membership, of which we are very proud, and have members from Scotland, Ghana, Rwanda, India, Slovenia, Croatia, USA and the Czech Republic. We are probably the Chapter with the most diverse membership in Europe.

I hope that you will contribute to the activities of the Chapter. Please check our website Home - Upsilon Xi at-Large Chapter (sigmanursing.org) for updates, forthcoming events and new opportunities. Please also send us your accomplishments so we can acknowledge you and celebrate your achievements. Post opportunities of interest in The Circle on our webpage and contribute to the discussions. By doing this we as a chapter can learn from each other, celebrate our diversity and continue to grow.

All welcome/ Croeso i gyd.

 

Best wishes/Cofion gorau

Upsilon Xi-at-Large is the Welsh Chapter of Sigma. The Chapter is currently affiliated with Swansea and Cardiff Universities and has members from across Wales, from the rest of the UK and even from other parts of the world. 

This website is the Chapter's means of communicating with its members. Chapter Leaders can post on the website, and all active members can read everything on the site. The links at the very bottom of the page will take you to the Sigma Repository as well as other parts of the STTI site.

If you are just visiting our site then there are still lots of things you can look at and read. Why not have a browse and then think about joining STTI and the Chapter. Information on how to join is situated under the "OUR CHAPTER" tab.
