This year, the entire globe has relied on the care, hard work, passion, and devotion of nurses. Nurses and nursing staff working tirelessly through the pandemic showed just how fundamental they are to the health and safety of patients and sick individuals, and this year we’re proud to be championing their incredible service from the rooftops for International Nurses Day.
Each year on 12th May, International Nurses Day is celebrated around the world and marked by the anniversary of Florence Nightingale’s birth. This important day aims to shine a light on the outstanding courage, strength and resilience of nurses, and this year’s celebration is focusing on nurse innovation in the face of a global health crisis. Here at Savoo, we want to make it as easy as possible for you to show your support. Read on to find out how you can get involved with this year’s International Nurses Day.

Join in and show your remembrance and thanks to all the nurses and midwives who look after our loved ones day in, day out.
Do your own fundraising
Whether you’re a keen baker or love to run, why not make it count and fundraise for a nursing charity close to your heart? There are plenty of nursing charities that rely on vital donations as well as volunteers, and any fundraising efforts and donations big or small can make a huge difference. Think about what sort of fundraising event you’d like to run, whether that’s a coffee morning or charity sports game and rally up your friends and family to cheer you on.
