Half term at the Florence Nightingale Museum

Don’t be fooled by the name of this museum – Florence Nightingale is just one of the legendary women in STEM being celebrated this half term at the St Thomas’s Hospital retrospective. Coinciding with the International Day of Women and Girls in STEM (science, tech, engineering and maths), all attendees will get to learn a little more about the fascinating careers of Ada Lovelace (a pioneer in computer programming), Mary Anning (legendary palaeontologist), and Mary Somerville (Scottish scientist and writer). There’ll be interactive activities for the whole family, and they’re included with museum admission – make sure to book your tickets!
