Appeal on Behalf of The British Wireless for The Blind Fund

on National Programme Daventry

View in Radio Times

By the Right Hon. DAVID LLOYD GEORGE, O.M., M.P.
Last night listeners heard the Bells of Bethlehem, and this Christmas Day they can hear an endless variety of entertainment by turning a knob. Most of them have sight as well as hearing, and they have only to bo reminded that there are thousands in Britain who are both blind and without the means to buy a wireless set, and who are, therefore, deprived of the one thing which can provide almost every uplift and relaxation that life can give them. To no class of persons in the world can broadcasting mean so much. Mr. Lloyd George is to appeal this evening for donations towards a sum which, if subscribed, can give a wireless set to every blind person in Britain who is without one.
(The Report and Accounts of the Wireless for the Blind Fund for 1933 will be found on page 891.)
