Appeal on behalf of the British Council for Rehabilitation by Captain Patrick Stewart , M.C.
Contributions will be gratefully acknowledged and should be addressed to [address removed]
Her Majesty Queen Mary is patron of the Council, which for the last five years, through its two departments, the Preparatory Training Bureau and the National Association for the Paralysed, has worked to restore disabled men and women to a state of life in which they can take their place in industry and commerce side by side with the able-bodied. Educational conferences have wakened the- interest and ensured the help of employers and others who care for the well-being of their fellow men. The problems the Council seeks to solve are common to all disabled people, whether their disablement is due to industrial accident, war injury, or disease.
Captain Stewart, who is making the appeal, is himself a disabled ex-officer, and head of one of the Council's departments.
