The Friends Of Julia want to memorialise some 1,300 people buried in Mullingar.
'Respecting people that were let down by society' - that's the aim of a group trying to erect a memorial wall at the site of a former midlands psychiatric hospital.
The Friends Of Julia are hoping to collect around 1,300 names of people who are buried on the grounds of St Loman's in Mullingar, to place on a memorial wall.
Several of the people committed to the hospital were treated using unconventional methods, including giving people lobotomies and malaria.
Julie Ann Clarke is a member of the group, and her great-grandmother is buried on the site, she says they also want to see the plots on the site restored:
Anyone who has a relative buried at St Loman's in Mullingar can email julie@friendsofjulia.com for more information on the database of names.
