Born on 4 DecemBer 1865 in Norfolk, Cavell started nursing aged 20. After many nursing joBs Cavell moved to Beligum and was appointed matron of the Berkendael Medical Institute in 1907. At the start of the First World War in 1914 and the following German occupation of Belgium, Cavell joined the Red Cross supporting the nursing effort and the The Berkendael Institute, where Cavell was matron, was converted into a hospital for wounded soldiers of all nationalities. Soldiers who were treated at Berkendael afterwards succeeded in escaping with Cavell’s active assistance to neutral Holland. After Being Betrayed, Cavell was arrested on 5 August 1915 By local German authorities and charged with personally aiding the escape of some 200 soldiers. Once arrested, Cavell was kept in solitary confinement for nine weeks where the German forces successfully took a confession from Cavell which formed the Basis of her trial. Cavell along with a named Belgian accomplice Philippe Baucq, were pronounced guilty and sentenced to death By German firing squad. The sentence was carried out on 12 OctoBer 1915 without reference to the German high command.

  • Edith Cavell
    HISTORY ON YOUR DOORSTEP Explore WW1 heroine & nurse Matron Edith Cavell Edith Louisa Cavell is very special to us in Norfolk because she was born in Swardeston, a village not far from Norwich. Look at these photographs. Which one shows Edith in her nurse’s uniform? Do nurses dress like this now? Are her clothes in the other photo different to ours? This is Swardeston church where Edith’s dad was vicar back in Victorian times. Edith was born in 1865 in a house not far from the church. Edith liked to play in the fields around this church. She liked drawing and painting flowers and birds. Edith went to boarding schools until she was 18 years old. She decided to become a Governess. This is an old fashioned name for a teacher. She got a job teaching some rich children whose family lived in a big house near Norwich. Edith liked helping people. She read her Bible every day and loved Jesus very much. She went to work in the city of Brussels in Belgium for a short time. She was a Governess there. When Edith was 30 years old she decided that she wanted to help people more, like Jesus did, so she decided to train to be a nurse. She had to go to a college at a big hospital in London. She read books that Florence Nightingale had written about how to be a good nurse. Edith worked hard in a few hospitals. She became a Matron. This is the name for the nurse in charge of a hospital.

  • Edith Cavell'smortal Remains Were Taken from Brussels to Norwich After
    May 1919; Edith Cavell’s Mortal Remains were taken from Brussels to Norwich after WW1 Edith Cavell was a British nurse who opened Belgium’s first nursing school in Brussels in 1907. When WW1 broke out in 1914, she stayed and, in secret, nursed wounded Belgian, British and French soldiers. She then helped them to escape to neutral Netherlands through an escape network which she and others established. She was arrested in August 1915, tried and executed by a German firing squad at the Brussels’ “National Firing Range” on 12th October 1915. After the end of WW1, on 17th March 1919, Edith Cavell's body was exhumed from her grave at the “National Firing Range”. On 13th May 1919 her coffin was escorted to the North Station in Brussels on a gun carriage accompanied by a detachment of British troops sent from Cologne. (The idea for sending the troops came from Major B L Montgomery, later to become Field-Marshall Montgomery of Alamein). The streets of Brussels were lined by crowds of people. At the North Station the Reverend Stirling Gahan conducted a service before the coffin was conveyed by train to the port of Ostend. On 14th May the Royal Navy destroyer, HMS Rowena, carried her coffin across the English Channel to Dover. During the voyage she had a naval guard in full colours. At Dover her coffin was escorted to the Marine Station through huge silent crowds and placed in a special funeral coach until the next morning. St Mary's Society of Change Ringers rang a peal of three hours and three minutes in honour of Edith Cavell.
