Florence Nightingale was an English hospital reformer who attended to the wounded during the Crimean War. She was born in Florence, on 12th March 1920, but Embley Park in Hampshire was her family home from 1825 until her death in 1910. ‘The Lady of the Lamp’ had over 10,000 people under her care in appalling and unsanitary conditions. Determined to remedy the suffering she had experienced, she raised £50,000 to establish nurses’ training in Britain.
