Financial hardship can affect us all at any stage of life, perhaps because of ill health or family problems or, as we get older, if our pensions do not stretch as far as we had hoped.
The full name of NurseAid is ‘Edith Cavell Fund for Nurses’ – the charity is named in memory of Nurse Edith Cavell who was executed on 12th October 1915 for helping British soldiers escape from Belgium.
This site will tell you about the work of NurseAid, who we can help and how to apply for assistance. If you require assistance but do not feel that you fall within the remit of our fund then here you will find a list of other sources of support.
NurseAid relies on donations and legacies to help fund its work.
Whatever the cause we hope to help.
