We are proud to share that this year marks Florence Nightingale Foundation’s 90th anniversary. Our roots are developed from the International Council of Nurses: the Florence Nightingale International Foundation was established on 5 July 1934 as a memorial to Florence Nightingale and her work, and both organisations have grown from this.
To mark this anniversary, we are planning several events this year, looking back at our history and looking forward to what is next. We have evolved so much but our focus on the importance of nursing and midwifery leadership, in the pursuit of clinical excellence, has not changed.
This April we are launching our #FNF90at90 campaign, celebrating 90 of the nurse and midwife leaders in the FNF community, representing a range of roles working in diverse settings.
Please do follow this on our social media channels: we’d love you to join in and share your posts too. Get in touch to be involved. We’ll be sharing round-ups via our website.
Supporting Future Leaders
We are launching an anniversary fundraising campaign to raise £90,000 to support 90 student nurses and midwives, 90 early career nurses and midwives and 90 ward leaders and social care nurses. Please donate so we can reach our target by the end of our 90th anniversary year.
