An appeal on behalf of THE CHURCH ARMY by a mother and daughter who have just come back from a fortnight by the sea in a Church Army Holiday Home
Tonight a mother and her little girl, who have just returned from a fortnight in one of the eight Church Army holiday homes, are to appeal on behalf of the Society's Fresh Air work. The mother will speak of life from a poor mother's point of view, and of her holiday experiences. Her little girl is to describe her own.
Last year the Church Army was enabled to give holidays at the sea or in the country to over 5,000 mothers and children. This year a new holiday home for mothers and children of the North has been opened at Southport, and an experimental home at Weston-super-Mare will be opened on August 1.
This appeal is confined to the Church
Army's Fresh Air work, but the Society has over sixty other branches of work, which touch life at every stage from babyhood to old age. Prebendary Carlile, founder and Honorary Chief Secretary of the Church Army, will be happy to give fuller particulars if anybody cares to write to him, at [address removed]
