The Florence Nightingale Foundation (FNF) is a charity organization in the United Kingdom that provides scholarships to nurses, midwives, and other health professionals while serving as a living memorial to the work of Florence Nightingale. In 1912, a memorial to Florence Nightingale was first proposed by Mrs. Ethel Bedford-Fenwick at an International Council of Nurses Congress in Cologne. The intent was to create a foundation to provide educational support for nurses. The memorial proposal was activated at the ICN Grand Council in Montreal, delayed to 1929 due to World War I. In 1931, the Florence Nightingale Memorial Committee proposed that the Memorial Foundation should focus on the post-graduate education of nurses. In 1934, the Florence Nightingale Foundation developed as an independent foundation based upon the same principles as the Memorial Committee and the Florence Nightingale International Foundation. The Florence Nightingale Foundation has since worked to be a living memorial to her life by providing scholarships to post-graduate nurses, midwives, and other health professionals in the United Kingdom. In 2022, the University of Derby became the first higher education institution to join the foundation academy. More information...
