Author of 'North Wales Hospital, Denbigh 1842-1995', Clwyd is a retired nurse who spent most of his career working at the Asylum. He has fond memories of working at the hospital and has created his own book about the fascinating history behind the former North Wales Institution. After reading the book and becoming fascinated by the stories and pictures, I met up with Clwyd to ask him about his time working there and the future plans for the hospital.
There was a time for work and a time to play,
A time to sing and a time to pray.
There were times to feel proud and times to feel glad,
times to feel safe and times to feel sad.
Some were scared and some were shy,
some would laugh and some would cry
The North Wales Hospital was a place for care,
though now only stories to remember and share.
