Diseases. Much good work has been done during the
year, and the attendances at the lectures in the majority
of cases were surprisingly good. The free treatment of
venereal diseases in Fulham is in the hands of the
London County Council, and such treatment can be
obtained at special clinics held at the West London
Hospital and St. George's Hospital. Particulars as to
days and hours of attendance can be obtained at the
Public Health Department, and notices giving these
particulars are displayed in the public lavatories in
the borough. Early, efficient and prolonged treatment
is the only hope of cure in these diseases, and there is
now no reason why any person, however poor, should
not avail himself or herself of these facilities.
I give below a list of lectures, etc., on this subject
held in the borough during the year 1924:—
