Bursary
Bernie Carpenter Perpetual Bursary 2022
The Bernie Carpenter Award was established in memory of one of the founding members of our Association. Bernie sadly died in March 2021.
The award recognises Bernie’s lifelong commitment to nursing and in particularly Nurse Education.
We would like to acknowledge her selfless contribution to this organisation. It’s hard to forget someone who gave us so much to remember. Bernie loved life, and indeed it loved her right back. A devoted daughter, sister and aunt. A fierce and loyal friend. An accomplished harpist she delighted us with her musical talent.
Her smile was our warmth, her friendship our blessing.
She is gone but her memory remains to guide us.
The song is ended but the melody lingers on.Irving Berlin
