Mother And Baby Home

A Memory of Eighton Banks.

I was in eighton lodge mother and baby home round about march 1972 my name was carol crosbie I was 16 years old met some lovely girls all in the same position. I went on to have a baby boy on May 31st. Luckily I got to keep him his name is Marc. I am not going to say it was easy because it wasn't been a teen age mum was very hard, but somehow I got through it. The stigma was awful, never having any money I had to work to make ends meet so really missed a lot of my son's milestones in life, but it was all worth it
