Appeal on behalf of Brentwood Recuperative Centre by MRS. MARY STOCKS
Contributions (preferably by crossed postal order or cheque) will be gratefully acknowledged and should be sent to [address removed]
Brentwood is administered by the Community Council of Lancashire, a voluntary organisation. It provides training in domestic skills and child care, with a chance to recuperate, for mothers from all parts of the country whose family life has reached the point of breakdown. Funds are urgently needed for the continuation of this work.

by Charlotte Bronte
Dramatised for radio in twelve episodes by Helena Wood.
Lucy advances from a nursery governess to a teacher in Madame's school. Ginevra, her boardship friend, welcomes her and chatters about her lovers, including 'Isidore' who adores and bores her. Madame's younger daughter has an English doctor to attend her. Lucy recognises him as the friend of her arrival, and later as her godmother's son, John Bretton. She says nothing of either discovery.
Produced by Martyn C. Webster
