One patient, not insured, was sent away to a sanatorium for three months,
through the agency of the East London Friendly Workers' Association.
(ft) 12 children were admitted to the Infirmary, 13 to hospitals. Children of
school age requiring sanatorium treatment are now dealt with by the London
County Council, and I have not therefore endeavoured, as in previous years, to
obtain such treatment through private agencies.
I have to express my thanks to all those whose kind co-operation has assisted
me in my work.
I am, Sir,
Your obedient Servant,
ETHEL J. CHARLESWORTH,
Health Visitor.
