Our March Meeting was hit with a last-minute cancellation due to our speaker Peter Goodrum having to spend most of the night at Norfolk and Norwich Hospital with his wife who had been taken ill during the night and was set for a clinical assessment in the afternoon.
We were grateful to Hazel Gillingham for stepping in at the very last minute to give us a talk on Mary Seacole, the other nurse in the Crimea. This proved to be an interesting talk as we learnt so much of her life and extensive travels. We were very grateful for Hazel taking up this slot with less than eight hours’ notice.
