Below is more audio from the week of talks to mark the opening of Hydra Books<\/a> at 34 Old Market.<\/p>\n

Lessons from the Tredegar Medical Aid Society<\/h2>\n

Speaker: John Desmond<\/p>\n

The Tredegar Medical Aid Society was founded in Tredegar in South Wales in 1890. In return for a contribution from its members it supplied free health care. This society contributed the model which established the British National Health Service<\/p>\n

The provenance of John\u2019s talk is a series of events which began last year. After recounting these events, he will discuss the lessons which he has learnt from his research into, and his reflections about the Tredegar Medical Aid Society. He will conclude by touching upon his current work about the health sector in Wales, which is informed by these lessons.\u2019<\/p>\n

John throws into sharp relief the contrast between the provision of a health service by the Tredegar Medical Aid Society and its current provision by the State.<\/p>\nhttps:\/\/www.brh.org.uk\/site\/wp-content\/audio\/autumn2011\/john-desmond-tredegsr-medical-30-11-2011_1.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
