on behalf of The Church Army by the Rev. E. Wilson Carlile, Chief of the Church Army, with some of his officers.
Donations will be gratefully acknowledged and should be sent to The Rev. E. Wilson Carlile, Church Army, [address removed]

The Church Army, founded in 1882 by the late Prebendary Carlile, has 550 Captains and Sisters who are all working within the Church of England, to give help to those in distress. All over the country, Church Army Homes and Hostels play an important part in social welfare, their Officers giving personal care and affection to many thousands of people who are in need of help. Homes for the Elderly, Youth and Social Centres, Prison Welfare, Moral Welfare, and Holiday Homes are just a few of the many activities that make up a widespread picture of the Church Army's practical Christianity.
