Seacole an inspiration for all nurses.

After more than 12 long years of fundraising a memorial statue to Jamaican-Scottish Crimean War nurse and businesswoman Mary Seacole was unveiled on 30 June. The sun shone brightly and it was one of my proudest days.

Thank you for your support.

I would like to give my heartf elt thanks to all your readers who supported the Mary Seacole Memorial Statue Appeal over the past 12 years.
