The department is also responsible for food hygiene and safety. An inspector looks at meat and butter (performing a test on the latter). The Maternity and Child Welfare Department has 12 centres, holding 84 health sessions per week. Exterior views of the health centre are followed by shots of the waiting room in the clinic full of mothers with their young children. The clinics are well-attended; a female doctor weighs and then performs a health check on a baby. There are also two dental clinics and a convalescent home at Hartley in Kent. The latter is for expectant and nursing mothers. There are scenes in the garden of mothers relaxing on deck chairs. The Borough also pioneered artificial sunlight treatment; the solarium was the largest municipal light clinic in the country (it was also a catalyst for neighbouring boroughs to build their own). It is stated that over 25,000 treatments are given per year; there are scenes of children wearing protective shades over their eyes and walking around the light-filled room. Next the outside of the Tuberculosis Dispensary in Grange Road is seen, followed by the foot clinic. A number of booths are set up with nurses attending to the feet of several people simultaneously. Finally, to communicate and teach health to the citizens of Bermondsey, the Health Department organises a number of health promotional activities. It is explained that during the day lectures take place in schools and then, in the evenings, lectures are presented at the back of a van. The lectures comprise of illustrated 'lantern' (photographic) slides and a cinema screening. A shot of the cinemamotor van is seen (a specially customised vehicle designed to project films), then finally a shot of the opening lantern slide of a screening; 'Open Air Demonstration, Bermondsey Borough Council, Public Health Department'. The End.
