The handicraft class has been continued and is a source of
interest to the members ; a few new members have joined during
the year. About 150 articles have been made and sold. This
does not include private orders obtained by members themselves.
One or two members were most successful in obtaining Christmas
orders.
A great deal of help has been given both to tuberculous
and non-tuberculous patients, and many visits have been paid to
Approved Societies on account of difficulties in connection with
sickness benefit. Convalescent treatment has been arranged for
four non-tuberculous adults, and eighteen women and two children
have been sent away in connection with the Woman's Holiday
Fund. Forty patients have been helped with clothing.
Our thanks are to the Red Cross Society, Invalid Children's
Aid Association, Charity Organisation Society, Friends of the
Poor and other charitable societies for their unfailing help, and
also to the Queen Mary's Needlework Guild for a generous gift of
clothing.
