A Very British Heroine

As a young woman, Edith Cavell wrote:

“Someday, somehow, I am going to do something useful…” 

Little could she have known that as well as being a pioneer of modern nursing, through her Christian compassion and for doing her patriotic duty, she would pay the ultimate sacrifice.

From the quiet Norfolk countryside, via poverty stricken Victorian London to war torn Europe, follow this incredible journey with “Edith” helping to tell her remarkable story in her own words.
