An appeal on behalf of The Guild of Aid for Gentlepeople, by the Rt. Rev. the Lord Bishop of Bristol

The Guild of Aid for Gentlepeople was founded in 1904. It helps both men and women of gentle birth whose income is under £91 a year and who are too old or too ill to work. Preference is given to those who have no claim on any special fund (such as doctors, barristers, and so forth).
The help given takes the form of regular grants up to 10s. a week, with extra gifts for coal, holidays, and Christmas. There is a wardrobe department from which gifts are sent to others besides those in receipt of financial aid.
Votes are not required and suitable applicants are helped as funds permit: the decision of the Committee is final. Funds are greatly needed and gifts of clothes are always welcome.
Contributions will be gratefully acknowledged, and should be addressed to The Rt. Rev. the Lord Bishop of Bristol, Guild of Aid for Gentlepeople, [address removed]
