Nurse veterans of the Great War Historic/Heritage

nurse_veterans_of_the_great_war


Find out what happened to female veterans of the First World War: trained nurses who had been close to the front line.

These groups of what might be called female war veterans had both public and private functions. They served as pressure groups that lobbied governments for improved rights and increased recognition of former nurses and as social networks, mutually supportive communities through which women of different social backgrounds could articulate a common identity.

This talk will appeal to anyone interested in women's history, First World War history and the social history of medicine and health.

Doors will open at 6pm, and the talk starts at 6.30. It is followed by a free drinks reception from 8-9pm.
