SUMMARY:Social Care in Reading: the Middle Ages to 1900
DESCRIPTION:Hospitium to Workhouse via the Oracle\nOur ancestors often fell on hard times. Although modern concepts of “welfare” might have been alien, from the Abbey to the creation of Battle Hospital, Reading did provide for housing, “relief” and care for its people.  This talk discusses what was done, including the work of the Abbey, almshouses and the Corporation.\nThis is the first of three talks in the Summer Potpourri Talks Series. The other talks take place on 27th August and 24th September. You may book tickets for individual events or for all three talks in the series for a reduced price.  \nTo book\nPre-booking is required, because the event link will be sent in advance.                             \nTo join this talk, you will need a computer device with speakers. Ideally, also a webcam and microphone. You also need to be able to access the internet from it. First-time users of Zoom, will be asked to download a small piece of software, which will be sent in advance.       \nImage: Reproduced with permission from Mike Cooper.                                                                \nTo book – scroll down.\n
