Somewhat to his dismay, Tom Danby's latest girl-friend, Alison Evesby, turns out to be an active social worker. Her idea of an evening out is to paint up the wretched cottage of old age pensioner Henry Burdock. Inspired by this good work on the part of her son, Sarah investigates and finds out that a projected old folks' home that Henry is waiting to enter is held up for lack of funds. The blame apparently rests with the Furness Rugby Club, whose grand raffle has swamped the other raffles in Furness, including the one that is to provide the funds for Henry's new home. What is to be done? Sarah decides to try a frontal attack on the Rugby Club. After all, which is more important to Henry, a couple of hours at a rugby match each week, or a decent place to live? But does she stop to find out Henry's views on the matter?
