An enquiry by Sonya Callingham
There are those who do not believe it possible to take a holiday abroad on less than £50; and there are those who do not believe they will ever have a holiday at all. This is specially true of children who are poor and handicapped. But some of them do see the sea because enough people care to make it possible. Who these people are. how they set about it. and what the children make of their opportunity is the subject of Sonya Callingham 's enquiry.
Produced by Patrick Harvey
Broadcast on Sept. 23. 1966
