Archive Notes: Prosthetics and the First World War

The first episode of a Q&A series in which we talk to
researchers about the records and stories they've uncovered at
The National Archives.


In 'Prosthetics and the First World War', our First World War
diverse histories researcher Louise Bell discusses the impact of
the war on disability history through our records: from designs
for lighter, more flexible prosthetics to new rehabilitation
methods trialled by specialist hospitals.
