History

The original maternity and gynaecology unit was opened by, and dedicated to, the Duchess of Westminster.[2] Phased redevelopment work that would see the children's wards and outpatient department move from the main hospital building over to the maternity and gynaecology annexe began in 2009.[3] In March 2011, the remodelled Wirral Women and Children's Hospital was officially reopened by the Countess of Wessex.[4]

In 2012, the Wirral Women and Children's Hospital featured in the BBC Two documentary series The Midwives.[5]

gollark: > 1) same on youtube for the same qualityIt can pick a quality depending on connection quality and such. You can also do this but it's hard.> 2) you are overly optimistic about the bloat of modern websites. I just loaded a random ad-loaded heavy website and the two biggest scripts along are already 1 MBOh dear.
gollark: Which they pay for traffic on, yes.
