From Workhouse to World Class Research Institute :
History of the Newcastle General Hospital site

Newcastle University is committed to the development of the Institute for Ageing and Health as a world class research institute, and the growing "Campus for Ageing and Vitality" on the Newcastle General Hospital site is a key part of this strategy. It is interesting to reflect on the historic origins of these developments.
