Talks

Part of the Silver Salisbury festival of events. Join us for a fascinating talk about Salisbury Hospital’s time during WW2 at Odstock.

Founded 80 years ago, this remarkable site played a crucial role in caring for American casualties from the D-Day landings. Lesley Self from Salisbury District Hospital’s ArtCare shares photos, documents and objects to bring the history alive. FREE but donations towards refreshments welcome.

Thank you very much to Barchester Healthcare Services for hosting this event and providing complimentary tea, coffee and cake.
