Dear All,
Gwent Archives is delighted to announce that it has secured a Wellcome Trust Research Resources Grant of £38,729 to fund our project:
‘From “A Penny in the Pound” to “Free at the Point of Delivery”: Cataloguing the pre- and post-1948 hospital records of Monmouthshire.’
Monmouthshire’s hospital records are distinctly valuable for the insight they provide into the history of healthcare provision in the area which inspired Aneurin Bevan to found the National Health Service.
The grant will fund the appointment of a project archivist and a preservation assistant to fully catalogue and preserve our unlisted 20th century hospital records.
This extensive collection is an invaluable resource containing a wide variety of documents including minute books, admission registers, maternity case books and hospital plans.
For updates and more information about the project please follow our blog at https://apennyinthepound.wordpress.com or contact Gwent Archives at [log in to unmask]
Regards,
Clare Jeremy
Project Archivist
