Nightingale’s Rainbow
Thursday, 9 September 2021
When you look back at the COVID-19 pandemic in the years to come, what will you remember? The images of empty supermarket shelves? Clapping for Carers? Not being able to see loved ones? Having to change the way we all do business? Wherever your mind takes you, there is likely to be a rainbow picture in a window in the background.
ASM sponsored the Florence Nightingale Hospice Charity and the Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust Charitable Fund to build a tiled rainbow in Spring 2021 to ensure that we recognise, and never forget, the resilience and community spirit shown by the NHS and the people of Buckinghamshire, in responding to the COVID-19 crisis in 2020 and beyond.
Nightingale’s Rainbow is a large installation, consisting of an arch covered with thousands of coloured tiles in rainbow colours located on the roundabout at the A&E Entrance to Stoke Mandeville Hospital in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, close to Florence Nightingale Hospice. It a physical monument to remember the resilience, community spirit and kindness shown across the communities of Buckinghamshire during the pandemic and a permanent symbol of hope in the face of adversity.
