The Centre is held at the School Clinic in. Grange Road,
which was described in the Annual Report for 1931.
As before, the meetings are held on Tuesdays and
Fridays, when Dr. Olive Aubrey attends, and much valuable
help is given by many voluntary workers.

In necessitous cases, babies and nursing mothers are
provided with free milk on the recommendation of the presiding
medical officer.
Careful investigation is made into the circumstances of
each case to ascertain whether it falls within the approved
scale, and when recommended it is endorsed by the Medical
Officer of Health and approved by the Committee,
