We welcome back Historian David Lewis to talk on the History of Selby’s War Memorial Hospital.
“Born from the hearts of Selebians following the Great War, our hospital is more than just a building- it is a living memorial. Since the first stone was laid by Princess Mary in 1926, it has stood as a symbol of local resilience and community spirit.”
