About
"The Hidden Now Heard podcast is a collection of oral histories that investigate life at long stay hospitals for people with a learning disability across Wales. It's an opportunity to uncover a hidden part of Wales' history, we will speak to nurses, doctors, hospital administrators and most importantly patients who may have spent most of their lives in hospital. Hidden Now Heard is a Mencap Cymru project, funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund with support from the Welsh Government. The Hidden Now Heard project will also be creating six temporary museum exhibitions across Wales, for more information visit our www.facebook.com/hiddennowheard or follow us on twitter @hiddennowheard."
