Scoping the Royal Hospital for Neuro-disability archives (360G-Wellcome-204756_Z_16_Z)

This is a scoping project intended to ascertain the cultural value of the RHN's historic archive. The archives have only been established and developed in the last 4 years but contain records dating back to the founding of the hospital. These records have never been fully assessed. The records have also never been previously available to the public or to researchers. The key goals of this project are: 1) assessment of the archive by a professional archivist 2) assessmnet of the archive by a professional conservator 3) creation of a report by archivist and conservator regarding the contents and condition of the archive materials. We believe that the archive materials at the RHN hold significant value for the local community as the hospital has existed in this location for over 150 years and has been a major employer in the local area. Further we also believe that the archives, particularly the medical records, hold great value for researchers interested in medical and social history.
