HammondCare is an independent Christian charity that was started during the Great Depression by Archdeacon Robert Hammond. Today it offers a wide range health and aged-care services. Meredith Lake is an historian who was offered access to HammondCare’s archives to write a book on the history of the organisation. She came into CPX to discuss how HammondCare got started and the effect it has had on people over the last 80 years.
