Entertainments
This scheme maintained its popularity with elderly residents
who took advantage of the invitations extended through my offices
from local groups. Concerts and variety shows and plays were
staged with great success, a total of 5,071 persons attended 29
productions. Tickets were distributed through old people's
clubs, and coaches were hired by the Council to convey those
attending to and from the entertainments.
