Carry On Nurse

A break to have their photographs taken and then it’s back to work for Nurse Matthews, Matron Pauline Robinson, standing at the back.

Front row:- Nurse Main, Nurse Barker, Nurse Smith, Nurse Brown, Nurse Hampton Sister Fawcett. Bill Dobson advises: “It was taken on 2nd September 1967 on the occasion of the Hospital Garden Fete. How do I know? Being the photographer I have the original slide along with two or three others!” Hazel Brown comments: “My mam, Nurse Brown(aka Sheila Grey), loved her job at Cottage Hospital. She often told us funny stories of the time she had there.” Whilst Miss J. A. Fox concludes with: “Oooh! This brings back memories! I have several similar photographs taken between 1958-1962 when I trained at the Norfolk and Norwich Hospital.”
