Appeal on behalf of the Hoxton Girls' Hostel
Fund by Lady AMHERST or HACKNEY
DOWN in Hoxton, where life is a serious matter
-L' at the best of times, and often a very hard grind, there is now being built a Hostel for the Girls' Guild of Good Life. It has many purposes ; primarily, of course, to provide accommodation for some fifty girls of the Guild, both factory and domestic workers, who have either no homes or homes unfit or unsafe for them to stay in. How much good it can do in giving these girls a secure and happy background, keeping them out of danger and out of that constant, insidious drift towards the streets, only the girls themselves, and the workers who share the Hostel with them, can know. It has taken many years to collect the necessary money, and £4,000 is still required. -
