Tooting Bec Hospital, just off Tooting Bec Road, was opened in 1903. It specialised in mental health care for the aged. Friends of Tooting Bec Hospital were active between 1961 and 2002. They were a group of volunteers who visited patients at the hospital, organised fundraising activities and tried to raise awareness of the work of the hospital and mental health issues. From 1995 they changed their name to The Bec Community Friends. The hospital was closed in 1995.
