About This Event

This Heritage Open Days event at Quebec House in London focuses on Mrs Ann Wadham. She served as the matron for a branch of the London Foundling Hospital established in Westerham in July 1760. Tickets are free.

When a branch of the London Foundling Hospital was established in Westerham in July 1760, Mrs Ann Wadham was tasked as its matron. Her role was to manage the branch, overseeing everything from the arrival of the children to the hiring of the staff.

Come along and meet 'Mrs Wadham' as she shares a fascinating insight into how children in the hospital were looked after and what happened when they were poorly.
