Brighton General Hospital

SRN's Association Reunion May 2009

By Ken Ross

On the 9th May 2009 a reunion was held at which thirty-nine State Registered Nurses who trained at the Brighton General met up at the East Brighton Golf Club for their bi-annual  reunion. In the past nurses spent three years up to State Registration, and those with us on the day covered the period from the  early 50's up to the 70's.

Some nine of them had not been to a reunion before and met up with friends that had not seen for over 50 years. Training took place at one hospital and this established a strong feeling of pride in your training school and close friendships developed, you never forgot those in your 'set'.
