Heswall, Childrens Hospital 1965

The Royal Liverpool Children's Hospital has
closed since this photograph was taken.
The site is now occupied by a supermarket,
which may or may not have greater social
benefit, and sick children are catered for at
Arrowe Park Hospital, with the reassuring
backup of Alder Hey in Liverpool. One
can imagine that the group in the lower
left of our picture is one of farewell after
a short stay. The appropriately dressed
Sister speaks reassuringly to mother, with
an older relative (grandmother?) providing
support and TLC.
