Voluntary Organisations

There are the membership details of some 34 voluntary organisations entered into the database (see below). The size, wealth and social composition of the organisations differed considerably, ranging from the largest – the Nottingham General Hospital – to organisations with only a fraction of its influence, prestige and income – like the Nottingham Society of Artists and the Nottingham Social Guild. Even within medical charities and organisations there was a clear hierarchy, from the General Hospital, to the much small specialist hospitals such as those specifically established for Women or Eyes. Of particular note, too, are those organisations like Cot Fund and Saturday Fund, established to support hospital provision. The detail available on each organisation varies according to the data available that has survived.
