SECTION B.
HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES
In this section are included hospitals and clinics serving the Borough
but not all of which are situated within the Borough.
Many of these services, including the provision and supervision of
old persons homes within the Borough, are directly administered by the
County, and the District Officer and District Organiser of the Home
Help Service have contributed information for which I am grateful.
1 am indebted to Mr. Forster and to Mrs. Fisher for their accounts of
the work of the T.B. Care Committee and the Women's Voluntary
Service.
