The Trust


The Burdett Trust For Nursing is an independent charitable Trust named after Sir Henry Burdett KCB, the founder of the Royal National Pension Fund for Nurses (RNPFN). The Trust was set up in recognition of the foundation, philosophy and structure of the RNPFN.  Working in collaboration with their funding partners the Trustees aim to make grants to nurses and other healthcare professionals involved in a wide range of innovative projects.

 

Nurses, midwives, health visitors and the allied health professions make up the majority of the healthcare workforce and play a pivotal role in direct care to patients. The Trust will target its grants at projects that are nurse-led, using its funds to empower nurses and make significant improvements to the patient care environment.
