The From Fever to Consumption website has been created by volunteers. We are still looking for content for the website in the following areas:
Oral testimony
Were you a male nurse trained at Hackney Hospital? Do you remember St Leonard's Hospital during the Second World War? Were you a doctor at The Mothers'? The Hackney Society would still like to interview former staff of the Mothers', St Leonard's and Hackney Hospital. Email: info@hackneysociety.org for further information or to tell us your connection to these institutions.
Website content
What type of content do we publish on this website? Anything to do with the story of healthcare in Hackney, past or present. It could be:
- old photos of healthcare institutions
- contemporary photos recording some aspect of healthcare in the borough today
- written memories of healthcare institutions
- scans of primary source material belonging to you
Look round this website to see what other people have added. Most people just add one photo or one paragraph of text. Other add whole photo galleries or sections of the site.
Terms and conditions
- Text submitted to the site may be sub-edited for the sake of clarity or readability.
- Images submitted to the site may be cropped or digitally enhanced (for example, to improve contrast).
- From Fever to Consumption is under no obligation to publish any text or photos submitted to the site.
- From Fever to Consumption may reject material on the grounds of copyright infringement, offensiveness or other legal considerations.
- From Fever to Consumption cannot accept contributions of a commercial, marketing or advertising nature. We will, however, accept editorial content from commercial organisations (for example, the memories of a sub-contractor to any of the healthcare institutions in Hackney).

Do you need any help with the material you're thinking of adding? Do you need help with writing your story, or help with publishing it to the site? Please email lisa@hackneysociety.org
