Every case has been investigated as to the means of
family relief, and and re-investigated monthly.
Roughly speaking families whose weekly average incomes
have been less than 6s. per head, after deducting the rental,
have been supplied with varying amounts (according to the
nature of the case) of free milk. When the average has been
6s., families have had to pay an amount proportionate to their
means, and with few exceptions no families have been supplied
with milk at a reduced price where the average income per
week exceeded 10s. per head.
All applications are now considered by a special Milk SubCommittee
which meets once a month to deal with fresh
applications and to review all existing cases with a view to
recommending their continuation, alteration or withdrawal.
There are two Infant Consultation centres situated in the
two extreme ends of the District, one being held at the Iron
Room, St. Saviour's Church, Grand Drive, Raynes Park, and
the other at the Mission Hall, Pincott Road, Merton. These
meetings are held on alternate weeks.
During the year there has been an average attendance of
33 per week.
