The Bloody History of Surgery: Online Workshop for Adults

Looking to do something fun this Halloween weekend? Join Surgeons' Hall Museums Learning Officer, Carl Ronan, to explore the bloody history of surgery in this adult only workshop. This online workshop looks at the procedures performed by surgeons in the past, including amputation without pain relief!

We’ll then get hands-on with an experiment to turn red cabbage into a chemical indicator. You don’t need prior knowledge of chemistry to try your hand with this kitchen science.

You will need:

• Red cabbage

• scissors,

• spoon,

• sieve,

• 2 x measuring / pouring jug,

• 3 x colourless clear tumblers / jars,
