The Mental Deficiency Act of 1913, empowered Leeds City Council to make residential provision for those people today described as having Learning Disabilities, previously known as Mental Deficiency, then Subnormality (1959) and Mental Handicap (1970s). For this purpose the Council acquired/obtained the Meanwood Park Estate. Patient number 1 was Mr Frank Tottie, admitted on 25th August 1919 aged just 10. He lived in the hospital for over 60 years to his death on 17th November 1979.

I worked at Meanwood Park Hospital when it closed and found it a privilege to work with some wonderful people. The bravery of residents moving into the unknown was inspirational. I sincerely hope it worked out for them.
