Appeal on behalf of The 'Not Forgotten' Association, by the Marchioness of Salisbury
The 'Not Forgotten' Association was founded in 1920 by Miss Marta Cunningham, C.B.E., and has for its object the provision of comfort, cheer, and entertainment for the wounded ex-Service men still in hospital. Further, it maintains a hospital (that of Lonsdale House, Clapham Park) for the treatment of disabled soldiers, sailors, and men of the Royal Air Force. The committee of the Association arrange for personal visit to some 800 to 1,000 cot cases a week, distributing comforts, and professional entertainment parties are provided regularly in the wards. In the last nine summers their Majesties the King and Queen and H.R.H. Princess Mary have entertained several thousand patients in the gardens of Buckingham Palace - a gracious example that has been followed by many others, so that some hundred thousand wounded men have been entertained at various private houses, gardens, theatres, cinemas, etc.
