Friends of St Alfege: talk by historian Neil Rhind

  • Address: St Alfege Church, Greenwich
  • Wednesday 6th October 2010 7:30pm to 9:30pm

Description

Neil Rhind, a local historian, will talk about the connection that St Alfege Church has with medical care in the area, eg with the Reverend John Cale Miller (1814-1880) and the Royal West Kent Dispensary which became the Miller hospital.

The Reverend Miller, who was a vicar at St Alfege from 1866-1880, conceived of the idea of “Hospital Sunday” when simultaneous collections in every place of worship, on a given Sunday, would be set aside for local hospitals.

All welcome. Admission: free.
