Zoom Talk: The Women's Land Army, the Cinderellas of the fields with Ian Everest
There were 80,000 land girls during WW2. The land girls played a vital role, by boosting Britain’s food production through cultivating the land. Lady Gertrude Denham also played a vital role in this operation.
They helped to provide home -grown food which was vitally needed because U Boats were destroying the merchant ships carrying imports of food and supplies. Many of the men who worked on farms had been called up for the armed services.
Please log in from 7pm and enjoy an informal chat between attendees before the talk starts at 7.30pm
