Colchester's Caring Past is a unique exhibition of the medical and social history of the town.
The badge of the society is a Rhinoceros, which is also the crest of the Society of Apothecaries of London. Rhinoceros horn was thought from the earliest times to be a potent antidote to poisons and also an aphrodisiac.
