Appeal on behalf of the Mental After Care Association by Sir Michael Redgrave , C.B.E.
Contributions (preferably by crossed postal order or cheque) will be gratefully acknowledged and should be addressed to Sir Michael Redgrave. C.B.E,The Mental After Care Association. [address removed]
Eighty years ago the Mental After Care Association pioneered the work which is now so widely discussed-that of providing friendly Homes in which early psychiatric cases and those discharged from Mental Hospitals can be rehabilitated, and those without friends be given permanent care or recuperative holidays. More than 100,000 have been helped, but more Homes are needed. Although Local Authorities pay maintenance fees, the money to provide Homes has to be found from voluntary sources.

by JOHN GALSWORTHY
Dramatised as a serial in ten parts by Muriel Levy with Rachel Gurney and Carleton Hobbs
Tony Croom invites Clare to visit Jack Muskham 's stables where he now works. On the way home the lights on his car fail, and, rather than risk an accident, Clare suggests they spend the night in the car. Some time later she receives notice that her husband Gerald has started divorce proceedings against her, naming Tony Croom as co-respondent, and claiming substantial damages.
Dinny is distraught for her sister, convinced of Clare's innocence and knowing Tony could never pay the damages if he and Clare lost the case.
