Powick Mental Hospital Oral History
Have you or has anyone you know come into contact with Powick Mental Hospital in any way? We are looking for staff, patients, visitors and families of the above to contribute their memories of the hospital to our oral history project. Let us know as well if you have any photographs, documents or objects relating to Powick as we are collecting them for a future display about the hospital. Help us to preserve this important slice of Worcestershire’s history!
History Competition, June – October 2008
The museum is running a history competition
for the second year running. There are three age categories: 5-11, 12-18
and adults, and projects must be based on an aspect of the history of
medicine. Your entry can be absolutely anything you want from a sculpture
to a song, use your imagination! Participants will be invited to a special
reception evening at the museum in October during which entries will be
on display and prizes will be awarded. Furthermore, if more than five pupils
from any one school enter the competition, the school will receive a discount
on an educational visit to the museum!
