Appeal on behalf of the Council for Music in Hospitals, by the Vice-President, Sir Steuart Wilson
Contributions will be gratefully acknowledged and should be addressed to [address removed]
The Council has for six years given regular concerts in mental hospitals, for which the hospitals can pay only the bare cost and for which the artists accept a very small fee The Council wishes 10 extend its work for patients in orthopaedic and tuberculosis sanatoria, who need new interests to save them from the boredom and stagnation that are the enemies of recovery and health. The Council needs funds to offer 'hospitals a ' trial concert ' in order to experiment in. therapy by music from ' live ' artists as well as from recordings; but as the smaller hospitals cannot afford to pay full costs the Council is dependent on voluntary contributions to carry on its work.
