New Hope Rural Leprosy Trust
On Tuesday 2 October 2012 I was able to attend the unveiling of a plaque commemorating the hospital. It is located at the entrance at the south-east corner of Watts Park and was officially unveiled by the Right Worshipful Mayor, Cllr Derek Burke, and the Mayoress, Mrs Christine Burke. Guests were first officially entertained by the Mayor in his parlour at the Civic Centre.

He introduced Mr Eliazar Tumati Rose, Director of the New Hope Rural Leprosy Trust, India and Mr Vinod Desai, MBE, Patron of New Hope Rural Community Trust.
We then had a talk by one of the Town Sergeants on the history of the Civic Centre and the various items of regalia, prior to the party proceeding to the plaque headed by fully kilted pipers and an Indian drummer.
Various speeches were given prior to the unveiling, in particular about the work undertaken in India to this day by the New Hope Rural Leprosy Trust.

The plaque being unveiled by the Mayor, Cllr Derek Burke and Mr Eliazar Tumati Rose.
