Based on my own family research this talk concentrates on Worcester Dispensary built by my great x3 grandfather. It includes information and tips on family history, the history of dispensaries and the controversies over financing medical institutions, all despite a shortage of original sources on this particular topic.
Views: 112 | Enquiries: 0I work in archives and libraries and I am interested in the social side of medical history, looking at the people involved, their motivations and the way they felt.
My talks are charged at £50 for the George Marshall Medical Museum Worcester which is a charity.
I researched First World War patients at Powick Mental Hospital, near Worcester, for my Masters in Local History at University of Birmingham. I also won awards for my research on Victorian funding at Worcester Infirmary during my Degree course at University of Worcester.
I am prepared to deliver talks on my previous research or, given sufficient time, to research a topic on request related to medical history.
