Listen to Florence Nightingale speak
Visit in a new windowSounds untrue? This is an amazing sound file that sends the class silent! An absolute gem. We link directly to the sound file itself, not the web page it appears in.
You may want to set this up in advance as it can take a while for the Windows Media file to play - you will need Windows Media Player.
