Went to Lewisham Hospital on the 16th March early.
I went to the lewisham hospital and took the picture of our two sons in their scout uniform they were born in the hospital. I put all the details on the back of the photo and handed it into the receptionist who promised me she would forward it to the people concerned.
I find now this photo hasnt been put on the video when you did say you wanted more photos of born in lewisham hospital – where has it gone? Eva Smith
Hi Eva, I’m so sorry about that. We haven’t received the photo but we will track it down at the hospital and it will be included in the video as soon as we have it – I now have others to include as well. Please don’t worry. We intend this project to continue. Thanks very much for bringing a photo.

My son, Ben, was born in Lewisham Hospital in January 2012 and I can not thank the staff enough for all the care they gave me and Ben. He was welcomed into the world by a group of caring and professional individuals. To lose A&E, childrens and maternity services at Lewisham would be terrible. Please keep up the fight!
hi
I know is might be a long shot but dose anyone know a girl called terri who has a daughter called paige she was born in Lewisham I just need to contact them thank you so much for reading
My son was born at Lewisham Hospital on 2 December 1992. He was 15 weeks premature and spent ten weeks in the NICU before being transferred to Farnborough Hospital, where he was originally expected to be born. We finally took him home on about the date he should have been born; he weighed 4 1/2 lbs.
He will be 21 in December, is 6’3″ tall and is in his second year at University. That is the outcome the incredibly talented and dedicated staff at Lewisham were able to deliver 20 years ago.
Yes, it’s costly, but any politician who wants to cut this vital service truly “knows the price of everything and the value of nothing”.
Keep fighting because the battle MUST be won.
Best wishes,
Chris
Exactly Christopher. We pay for the NHS for the benefit of all. The govt seem to think its theirs. Fantastic to hear your son has done so well. Dedicated medical staff of all kinds give their all every day, Lewisham Hospital is one example of this.
