Did you know that there were two Nightingale sisters
That’s right! Florence and Parthenope Nightingale were close in age and were named after the cities they grew up in.
They were both born into an upper-class life of wealth and expectation, but chose to follow very different paths.
In honour of National Sisters Day we are hosting a special museum talk & tour which will delve into the complex relationship between the two sisters and highlight their accomplishments.
