Child Guidance
A proposal to establish a child guidance centre in Tottenham,
within the existing accommodation at the Cornwall Road School
Clinic, was approved during the year, The necessary alterations
to the premises have, at the time of writing, been almost completed
and it is anticipated that the centre will commence
operations in April, 1953. Such a centre will be of great benefit
to Tottenham mothers and children and will save them the long
journey to the Child Guidance Training Centre in London.V
