We are continuing the collection and sale of milk bottle tops
and tin foil. Although the proceeds are somewhat reduced, it is
felt that the effort involved is worth while.
The close co-operation of Officers of the Department of Health
and Social Security and the Disablement Re-settlement Officers of
the Ministry of Labour has contributed in great part to the welfare
of our patients. We also acknowledge with thanks the help received
from the Morganite Carbon Company, the Queen Mary's
London Needlework Guild and the Wireless for the Bedridden
Society.
We wish to record our great appreciation of the practical help
so willingly given on numerous occasions by members of the
Battersea Park Rotary Club. Thanks are due also to our friends
who have sent various gifts during the year.
In conclusion, we express our appreciation of the work carried
out on behalf of the Committee by Miss R. M. Greenaway, Social
Worker, Miss M. Clifford, Health Visitor and Mrs. I. Faithful!,
who took over the duties of Secretary in September.

WANDSWORTH TUBERCULOSIS CARE COMMITTEE
ANNUAL REPORT FOR 1969
Each year it gives me pleasure to " take stock " of the Care
Committee's work and this year is no exception.
Nothing startling happened during 1969 but we continued to
give as much assistance as possible to those patients of our Chest
Clinics who were in need. Help towards the cost of clothing and
heating will probably always be two of the main things for which
we are asked but every case is carefully considered.
Outings to Worthing in May and Brighton in September were
very successful and much enjoyed and I must thank Mr. and Mrs.
Ireland for again taking charge of these trips.
The Committee remained unchanged from the previous year
except for the addition of Councillor Mrs. Pruszak who was
appointed by Wandsworth Council. We are always pleased to
welcome new members and we hope Mrs. Pruszak will find our
work interesting and rewarding.
