History of the NHS in Greater Glasgow and Clyde

In this section you'll find our 70th anniversary commemorative website, showing what celebrations are taking place this year, as well as a timeline spanning 70 years of the NHS in Greater Glasgow and Clyde and how life was before the NHS.

We also say a fond farewell to five great city institutions through special commemorative downloadable PDF booklets, celebrating the proud history of these famous and well-loved Glasgow hospitals which closed in 2015.
