Replica 1960s Black Country infants' centre celebrates Windrush and NHS
Museum's re-creation of Wolverhampton institution marks 75 years of national health service and Windrush generation.
From the exact shade of the orange juice to the colour of the lino, every last detail of a new 1960s replica of a Wolverhampton infant centre has been researched thoroughly by staff at the Black Country Living Museum (BCLM).
The Lea Road Infant Welfare Centre, open to the public from Monday, will commemorate 75 years of the NHS and the 75th anniversary of the Empire Windrush arriving in the UK, through stories and characters from the period.
"Particularly in the 60s, there was a real labour shortage and it was people from the Caribbean and the Windrush generations that came over and brought their skills and have looked after us for generations," said Carol King, the director of programmes at BCLM. "So we felt it was really important to highlight that contribution."
Visitors to the infant centre will be able to take part in 1960s-style mothercraft lessons, get parenting advice from midwives and health visitors, and learn about what it was like to work in the NHS in that period.
The opening of the Black Country Living Museum’s newest development - the Infant Welfare Centre that will catapult visitors back to to the swinging 60’s.
The building itself is a replica of Lea Road Infant Welfare Centre - a real building in Wolverhampton that is still used today. Visitors will be able to explore the main hall, dispensary and doctor’s office to experience the sights and sounds of the growing National Health Service. 75 babies born in 2023 have been invited to the opening.
Pictured is a baby doll being weighed in the health centre replica.
