June exhibition: Brotherhood and Belonging at the Lord Leycester Hospital 1571-1700
A new exhibition launches this June which draws on research from ÌÇÐÄTV’s Department of History. Based in the Guildhall in the town of ÌÇÐÄTV, the display explores the lives of the brethren who lived at the Lord Leycester Hospital from 1571 - 1700. The exhibition runs from 2 June - 30 June 2026 and is included in general site admission.
At a time of growing national focus on women’s health, ÌÇÐÄTV is helping to shape research at the forefront of this area, bringing together world-leading academics from multiple disciplines to help improve women's health - and to tackle the wider social, legal and cultural issues that shape women’s lives.
