General Files (Correspondence)

Series of general files comprising correspondence and papers relating to the administration of the Lebanon Hospital, and its financial concerns. Includes the correspondence of Sir Geoffrey Furlonge (former Chairman of the London General Committee), dated 1971-1981, general correspondence from the London Office, and papers relating to staff matters, trust funds and endowments, appeals for funds and general financial matters, the closing down of the original Hospital, and correspondence between the London Trustees and the Charity Commission. [See also files of correspondence relating to the Constitution, 1962-1983.]

Wherever possible original file groupings and titles have been retained. Correspondence found loose in the archive has been grouped together, and arranged chronologically (see 'Lebanon Hospital, Miscellaneous Correspondence, 1951-1989). All files have been arranged in broad chronological order, although groups of related files have been kept together to form complete sub-series.
