So you want to be a Nightingale Nurse?
We’ve worked with the nurses at Guy’s & St Thomas’ Hospital NHS Foundation Trust to help children discover what it’s like to be a modern nurse and the many different roles the field of nursing offers today.
In the Family Corner you will also be able to dress up as either one of Florence’s nurses or a modern day nurse!
Letter Writing

What would you campaign for?
Florence wrote some 200 books, pamphlets and articles, and over 14,000 letters. She wrote about nursing, philosophy, sanitation and hygiene, hospitals, and statistics.
