Struck off the register
The NMC's Fitness to Practise Committee decided that children's nurse Kelly-Marie Porter should be struck off the register. The panel found that on 9 April 2025 she was convicted at Plymouth Magistrates' Court of making indecent images of a child and possessing an extreme pornographic image. She was sentenced to 32 weeks suspended imprisonment and placed on the Sex Offenders Register. The committee found her fitness to practise impaired by reason of her conviction and imposed a striking-off order on 17 April 2026, with an 18-month interim suspension order to cover the appeal period.
