Story
Welcome to the second Just Giving page for Nightingale F.C.
In April 2020, as every day life would change within the U.K. as lockdowns were announced, Nightingale F.C. was born.
With so many risking their own lives to help and even save others, we felt it was the perfect opportunity to start building something that will give back to those that gave so much in our year of need.
We simply wanted to give back and bring people together through all backgrounds no matter their beliefs, religion, colour, gender and age etc. whilst supporting the NHS who are an example of what can be achieved when we all work together.
Our NHS workers and volunteers work tirelessly and have done so for decades before the current pandemic.
It is crucial we support them long after too.
Nightingale F.C. has grown in terms of publicity at a fast pace and we are proud of our assembled squad which is a combination of NHS workers and key workers from around the Midlands.
Our popular home shirt proudly displays the sponsor of the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital Charitable Fund and we are delighted to have numerous players that are part of this incredible organisation.
All donations are most gratefully received, no matter the amount and we also appreciate any sharing of our story as we continue to grow and do all that we can to support the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital Charitable Fund around our day to day jobs.
All funds raised go to the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital Charitable Fund, who exist to support NHS patients, their families and carers, as well as provide specialist training, equipment and knowledge to staff at The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.
We are always looking for donations of prizes for our events and also wish to support local businesses should you wish to get involved.
We also offer matchday sponsorship packages as well as player sponsorship opportunities.
If you want to find out more please visit our Twitter page @NightingaleFc and drop us a message or check out Facebook and do the same just by searching Nightingale Football Club. .
We have lofty ambitions and want to make this project as big as possible to celebrate all trusts across the U.K.
We are fully affiliated through the F.A. and we are proud ambassadors of Kick It Out.
We are also delighted to be using our message in local schools to educate children about the importance of the NHS and how charity can play its part in providing for those that need help.
Thanks for taking the time to read our story.
If you support the NHS, you're a supporter of Nightingale F.C. ⚽🌈
