Mary Seacole
A new direction has been announced for the Mary Seacole Awards leadership programme, which funds nurse-led projects focused on improving health services for ethnic minority communities.
The running of the awards is being taken over by the Mary Seacole Trust and the Florence Nightingale Foundation, as part of a move to “broaden the impact and improve the sustainability” of the scheme.
“Some of you who follow the history of nursing will know that historians love to mention there was rivalry between Mary and Florence”
Greta Westwood
Currently, the programme is delivered by a group of unions comprising the Royal College of Midwives, Royal College of Nursing, Unison and Unite, with support from NHS Employers and funding from Health Education England.

Lewis Hamilton Knighted In Year-End Royal Honors
The seven-time Formula One champion has said his recent success was partly inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement.
LONDON (AP) Lewis Hamilton is now a “Sir” as well as a seven-time Formula One champion.
Hamilton received a knighthood Wednesday as part of Queen Elizabeth II’s New Year’s honors list, which also recognized British performers, politicians, public servants and people outside the limelight who worked to defeat the coronavirus and its devastating impacts.
Hamilton, who secured his seventh F1 title last month to equal Michael Schumacher’s record, has said his recent success was partly inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement. The 35-year-old race car driver took the knee on the grid and wore anti-racism slogans during the season.
