Even if student Gloria Coulson was only acting the part of a sick patient
Even if student Gloria Coulson was only acting the part of a sick patient, she would certainly be very dizzy by the time Kings College Rag Week collectors had finished pushing her round the streets of Newcastle in this old iron bedstead on 23rd October 1958

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this nostalgic print from 1958, we see student Gloria Coulson fully committed to her role as a sick patient during Kings College Rag Week. As she lies on an old iron bedstead, it's hard not to imagine the whirlwind of emotions and dizziness she must have experienced throughout the day. Surrounded by a large group of people dressed in fancy costumes, this snapshot perfectly captures the fun and humor that defined rag week festivities back in the 1950s. The mixed age range of participants highlights how these events brought together students from different backgrounds for a common cause. The image also serves as a reminder of the charitable aspect of rag week. Students would take to the streets, pushing beds like this one around Newcastle to collect donations for various causes. It was through these lighthearted yet purposeful activities that they made a positive impact on their community. Looking at this photograph today, we can't help but feel a sense of nostalgia for simpler times when creativity and camaraderie were celebrated with such enthusiasm. This image is not just about education or transportation; it represents an era when young minds came together to make a difference while having loads of fun along the way.
