Wellcome Witness seminar: 50 years of Brook. by wellcomelibrary

A recording taken of the Wellcome Witness seminar in celebration of 50 years of the organisation Brook. There are fascinating reminiscences about the founder Helen Brook as well as insights in how the organisation blossomed and filled a vacuum in supporting contraceptive advice for the under 25s. The organisation fought off significant challenges to service user confidentiality for the under sixteens in the 1980s, emerging stronger although still subject to pressures on their funding. There are also insights into how Brook operates in Birmingham and Northern Ireland.
