The Florence Nightingale Foundation raises funds to provide scholarships for nurses and midwives to enable them, through study, to promote innovation in practice and to extend knowledge and skills to meet changing needs.

BAND TRUST RESEARCH SCHOLARSHIPS 2008/2009

These scholarships are offered annually, for one academic year, to British and Commonwealth Nurses and Midwives who have a current registration with the NMC and are working in the UK.   You are invited to apply if your study involves:

a course in research,   or

an evidence-based practice module or a research-based component of a graduate programme,  or

a research dissertation

All of these must be academically supervised and must involve research with the aim of improving practice.   The Charity Commission requires that all research funded by the Foundation meets the guidance issued in their document "Charities and Research" (October 1990).

Applicants must be committed to evidence-based practice and have current clinical links.

On completion of the course or period of research, the Foundation will require a written report from the Scholar on the study undertaken and its value and contribution it has made to their professional practice.

The Foundation cannot pay for secretarial assistance, computers, stationery, travel expenses to and from place of study, replacement staff costs or for unpaid study leave while the Scholar is undertaking the study, nor can a scholarship be awarded retrospectively.

Due to limited resources, these are the only courses funded by the Foundation.
