Support us
Please help to secure the legacy of Florence, her work and the future of the Museum.
The Florence Nightingale Museum is an independent museum and registered charity. We receive no government funding and therefore rely on the generosity and goodwill of those who support us.
Support can range from one-off donations or volunteering your time here at the Museum. All types of support are valued and help us realise a wide variety of projects and activities.
Every donation, no matter what the size, is welcome and will help us continue our purpose as a museum to care for a historically significant collection and to inspire the next generation of healthcare workers.
Sponsorship
Partner with a global icon – Florence Nightingale
The Florence Nightingale Museum is very grateful for the generosity of our sponsors and supporters!
It is thanks to these partnerships that the Florence Nightingale Museum is able to provide groundbreaking exhibits, engaging events, and interactive activities for visitors to enjoy and learn from.
The Florence Nightingale Museum is a registered charity, number 299576, first registered on 22 December 1982.
We offer a wide variety of both corporate and individual sponsorship opportunities. Whether you are interested in helping to finance a part of our permanent exhibit, create a new section, or facilitate an event or activity the Florence Nightingale Museum will work with you to create unforgettable and impactful experiences.
Exhibition Sponsorship
The Florence Nightingale Museum aims to preserve and tell the stories of its namesake and of all nurses past, present, and future to both the London community and beyond.
Our temporary exhibitions offer sponsors unique opportunities to facilitate the creation and display of completely new and engaging information. They will enjoy brand acknowledgement within both the exhibition space and within marketing materials, while also enjoying special chances to utilise our remarkable event space.
There are also opportunities for sponsors within our permanent exhibit. Collection preservation, repair, and building are essential to the Florence Nightingale Museum and will allow the sponsor an inside look into the collection and fascinating research.
Education and Outreach
Our sponsors have the opportunity to impact the lives of Londoners of all ages when they contribute to the museum’s education and outreach programs.
Sponsors are able to contribute to programs, learning resources, and help create educational activities while enjoying an impressive benefit package including staff volunteering opportunities.
Community Engagement
If sponsors are interested in reaching certain members of the community, or have an interest that they would like the Florence Nightingale Museum to explore, there are opportunities for sponsorship within community engagement.
Whether it is expanding accessibility opportunities, creating unique experiences, or allowing the Florence Nightingale Museum to visit areas outside the museum building, community engagement opens doors to sponsors to directly impact their communities and help share learning and engagement to a wide audience.
Events
The Florence Nightingale Museum offers a wide range of educational and fun events to the community. By sponsoring events, companies will receive both recognition within the event itself and in the advertising leading up. They also benefit from packages allowing a certain number of slots to be allocated to the members of their team/company.
Wall of Honour
Say thank you to someone who has inspired you
We all need inspiration to help us through life, and Florence Nightingale inspired thousands of women and men to follow in her footsteps. We are inviting nominations for the museum’s Wall of Honour where you can honour someone who has inspired you or mark your own personal support for the museum.
The Wall of Honour is located in a museum’s reception area and welcomes all visitors to the museum. By supporting this project, you may choose a person to remember and ensure their name is featured on the Wall. You can remember anyone who has played an important role in your life, including relatives, friends, a nurse or carer, a teacher or professor, someone who has influenced your career or someone you admire. You can recognise the support of someone who is working, retired or who has passed away. Alternatively, you can celebrate your own contribution to the museum.
Your charitable donation will help us care for the museum’s collection and ensure that future generations have the chance to learn about Florence Nightingale and her achievements.
You will be recognised as a Patron and invited with your family to a special event to unveil your addition to the Wall of Honour. The invitation will be also be extended to the person you have remembered, if applicable.
Book of Honour
Your page in the Book of Honour
Do you know a nurse who would like to be remembered on a page in the Florence Nightingale’s Book of Honour? Or would you like to commemorate your own nursing career?
For a donation of £60, we will place your words, photos and images in the Book to be kept in the museum forever, as a record of the incredible stories of nursing.
Each page is 30cm x 24cm (landscape).
Your donation will help us to care for the museum collection and continue in our work in celebrating nursing, past and present.
