Florence and Mary

The life and times of Florence Nightingale and Mary Seacole

  • Fires need lighting!
  • Uniforms need washing!
  • Bullets need dodging!
  • And lives need saving!

Our character will take your children back to the life and times of two of our most valuable Victorians. Your children will experience just how hard life was for Florence and Mary as they helped the soldiers of the Crimean war. Yet they will also experience the heights of society during the Grand Ball held by the grateful soldiers.
