About this work

Description

Correspondence and press releases regarding CONCERN's campaign against the early closure of the Friern Hospital, Britain's largest psychiatric hospital. The closure date of the Friern Hospital was brought forward eighteen months earlier than originally planned. CONCERN campaigned against the hospital's early closure as it believed that adequate community care arrangements for patients could not be implemented in time.
