Appeal on behalf of the Royal Hospital and Home for Incurables, Putney, by Emlyn Williams
Contributions will be gratefully acknowledged and should be addressed to [address removed]
The Royal Hospital and Home for Incurables, Putney, founded in 1854 by Dr. Andrew Reed for the relief of those over the age of rtvrty who are considered 'beyond the likelihood of cure,' has for a hundred years given the best possible nursing and medical care, as well as the security and comfort of a home, to those who are incapacitated by diseases such as arthritis and disseminated sclerosis and who cannot remain in their own homes for lack of anyone to look after them.
It is not part of the National Health
Service, for it is a home rather than a hospital,but it nevertheless directs all the skill of modern medicine towards improving the patients' condiron, and in this centenary year it hopes to raise £ 100,000 to continue to provide for 250 crippled men and women the nearest thing to the irreplaceable happiness of their own homes
