Administrative / biographical background

A Visitors and Friends [of Warlingham Park Hospital patients] Association was set up as a charity in 1955, and affiliated with the National Association of Leagues of Friends. By 1965 it had changed its name to the League of Friends of Warlingham Park Hospital, and in 1998 its name changed again to the League of Friends of Croydon Mental Health. Some office space at Warlingham Park was given over to the activities of committee members, which included visiting patients on the wards and supporting hospital events and projects. The affairs of the League of Friends were wound up shortly after the closure of Warlingham Park Hospital in 1999.
