P11451 Silver Chain Nursing League Building
Consultation closes 11 July 2025
Overview
The Heritage Council of Western Australia is currently considering whether Silver Chain Nursing League Building should be included in the State Register of Heritage Places. The Council believes the place is likely to be of State cultural heritage significance for its close association with Silver Chain, an organisation established in WA in 1905 to support less fortunate families and which provided nursing services from 1907. This building is one of the earliest structures built for Silver Chain’s cottage home complex, established at this location in 1916 to accommodate elderly patients who could no longer live independently.
Representing an organisation primarily pioneered by, and employing, substantial numbers of women, the place is an important reminder of the contribution of women to the health and care system in WA. Registration will celebrate this story and acknowledge this important contribution.
