Organised by the Old Edinburgh Club, and given by Edinburgh architect Malcolm Fraser, “To do the sick no harm; and maybe even some good” talk by Malcolm Fraser is free to attend, but prebooking is required.
It will cover the history of health and healing in Edinburgh, from its origins at Soutra, just outside Edinburgh, through Blackfriars and the Trinity College Church, to the Victorian espousal of good, healthy Nightingale principles, what we have learned and what we appear to have forgotten.
“To do the sick no harm; and maybe even some good” talk by Malcolm Fraser takes place at Augustine United Church on George IV Bridge. The venue has ground-level entry and is wheelchair accessible.
