This is the jubilee year of the Working Ladies' Guild, which was founded to assist gentlewomen in reduced and necessitous circumstances.

It helps them with the training expenses of their children, endeavours to find employment for its ladies, and gives financial assistance in cases of chronic illness and distress by pensions and grants. There is a shop where work is sold, on commission, after it has been passed by the Committee.
