Maternity and Child Welfare Work.
T am very pleased to be in a position to report most favourably
on the progress this work has made during the year; the appended
figures show how the attendance has increased. The mothers
appreciate more and more the care and attention given to the babies,
and spread the good news among their neighbours.
The result of this was that in November of 1920 we opened the
Ordnance Centre twice a week instead of once a week, and this was
followed by the opening of the Bush Hill Park Centre twice a week
in December of the same year. The attendance at once showed
the necessity of such a step, and both the Town and Chase and
Ponders End Centres were opened twice a week in the early part of
the year.
I am glad to say we have a full supply of Voluntary Helpers,
who are most regular in their attendance, and take the greatest
interest in the work.
