Hind Al Soulia - Riyadh - ATLANTA — A time capsule sealed by Princess Diana in 1991 has been dug out of a children’s hospital in London to enable the construction of a new cancer center.
Workers who were either born in 1991 or already working at the hospital that year helped remove the capsule which revealed items including a pocket size television, Kylie Minogue CD, and some tree seeds, according to a press release Wednesday from the Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children (GOSH).
Janet Holmes, Senior Health Play Specialist, who was working at GOSH in 1991, said her favorite item was the pocket TV.
“It brought back so many memories seeing the pocket TV in there – I had bought one for my husband back in the day, for when he had a break whilst driving his coach around the country. They were very expensive then!” Holmes said, according to GOSH.
The late Diana, Princess of Wales, was president of GOSH in 1989 and was known for regularly visiting children at the hospital in the heart of London. She was part of the time capsule ceremony in March 1991 when GOSH was laying the foundation for its Variety Club Building.
Two young people who won a national competition provided the items for the capsule. They had been asked to suggest memorabilia that represented life in the 1990s. There was also a solar-powered calculator, a collection of British coins, a snowflake hologram, a sheet of recycled paper and a European passport.
Rochana Redkar, Clinical Fellow in Paediatric Haematology Oncology and Bone Marrow Transplant Unit, was excited to see the unearthing.
“It was so lovely to be part of this event. I had just joined GOSH six months before and I was so excited to be involved in the removal of the time capsule, which was buried the year I was born!” Redkar said, according to the press release. - CNN
