The 3os. a Week Budget

on 5XX Daventry

View in Radio Times

This talk should prove of special interest to housewives of extremely restricted means. We have had family budgets basad on incomes varying from £500 a year to £150, but there are, of course, a large number of households whose incomes do not reach sometimes as much as 30s. a week. This is particularly true in many rural areas. A good deal is being done through the Women's Institutes, the British Legion and similar organizations to assist such housewives by planning cheap and nourishing meals at a minimum cost, and the B.B.C. is taking a hand in this work by broadcasting several talks giving recipes which can be prepared at an extremely low cost.
