It was lovely to catch up with British Red Cross Service Coordinators on Wednesday this week - a great meeting and many thanks for all that you do and for being great colleagues!

@wabbey Florence Nightingale inspired Henry Dunant, founder of the Red Cross. She went on to directly influence the setting up of the British Red Cross in 1870.
