Appeal on behalf of THE Time and TALENTS
GUILD by the Rev. Canon C. S. WOODWARD
IN Dockhead, a riverside corner of South London, a. society of girls, called the Time and Talents Guild, carries on work among girls and children. Since 1914 their centre has been an old public-house, into which crowd weekly 250 members of Clubs, Guides, Brownies, and Sunday School. Each Club has a waiting list of would-be members, who cannot join owing to inadequate premises. Now has come a great opportunity. This dilapidated building will shortly bo pulled down with the surrounding courts and alleys. The London County Council has offered the Guild a freehold site on their new Dockhead Building Estate, for a Clubhouse, and it is hoped to establish a centre, not only for girls, but for the whole family, where recreation and educational, work, etc., will bo carried on. The Time and Talents Guild is asking for £12,000, to buy the site, build and equip the clubhouse, and invest a small sum for upkeep. Of this, £8;000 has already been raised by this small society of girls, who now appeal to the public to help with the last £4,000.
