The necessary recruitment of personnel throughout 1946 remained
difficult, although every use was made of all possible
part-time sources. In particular, it has been exceedingly difficult
to obtain Wardens. The recent Circular of the Ministry of
Health should assist in this problem and the Council have asked
that six places for Students be provided by the Local Education
Authority when courses to train suitable persons as Wardens be
instituted. Of the Nursery personnel during the year, four
obtained the Diploma of the National Society of Children's
Nurseries and six the National Nursery Nurses' Certificate of the
Royal Sanitary Institute.
12. I wish to record our indebtedness to the Voluntary
Helpers at the Clinics who have given such excellent services in
innumerable and always so unobtrusive ways. They have continued
to arrange for the distribution of the Government's vitamin
accessory products, while their co-operation with all the personnel
of the Department has been the fullest and of the greatest value
and assistance.
