Morgannwg Mental Hospital,Bridgend silver Nurses badge/RMPA/ GNC Trio and certificate

A trio of Badges awarded to the same nurse for her Mental Nurse training at what would have been the Glamorgan County Mental Hospital in Wales.She trained in the 1940s and gained her certificate from the Medico Psychological Association,which is enclosed.
The first badge is the silver and enamel Badge of the Royal Medico Psychological Association.Engraved to the rear for M.E.Robinson 45380.Hallmarked for WD&S,Birmingham 1943.This is accompanied by the matching certificate which although rather dirty and worn,with some tears,is still a scarce survivor.
The second badge is a silver gilt and enamel badge from the Morgannwg Hospital which is what the asylum became in 1948 and this badge would have been issued to her retrospectively.It is engraved to the rear M.E.Lewis May 1944 ( this is Marian Edwina Lewis nee Robinson) and bears hallmarks for Thomas Fattorini,1963.Good condition but with one small crack to the enamel.Height 26mm
The third badge is a chrome and enamel badge for the General Nursing Council For England & Wales for Registered Mental Nurse Training.It is engraved to the rear M.E.Lewis RMN 45697 17.3.70 with pin clasp being a loose temporary replacement.Once again it appears that she decided to register with the GNC some 26 years after completing her original training!
Also included is a picture of this lady in uniform as a ward sister at the Parc Hospital Bridgend.
A nice trio of badges and memorabilia to a Welsh Mental nurse.
