South East Essex Practice Nurse Group
(SEEPiNG)
South East Essex Practice Nurse Group (SEEPiNG) is based in Southend-on- Sea and was formed in 1995 to provide education and professional and social support for all nurses working in general practice in the area.
Having celebrated our 30th anniversary in 2025, we are the largest and longest running practice nurse group in the UK, and are here to provide a vital source of on-going education and support to Practice Nurses, Associate Primary Care Nurses, Assistant Practitioners and Healthcare Assistants, with a membership of approximately 70 nurses.
Formed of a committee of six experienced primary care nurses volunteering our time to run SEEPiNG, we manage and run the group with committee meetings every six weeks.
