WOMEN IN GREEN – Maidenhead’s WVS   5th November – Sunday 8 December

To mark the 80th anniversary of the start of World War II, this exhibition pays overdue tribute to the women of the local WVS, WRVS and RVS. Their wartime role including the distribution of flood and clothing to air raid victims and assitance with evacuees from London.  Local WVS volunteers always helped with relief during regular floods and provided assitance during the great fire at Windsor Castle in 1992.  Items on display include uniforms and badges, some of them loaned by museum volunteers who were also WVS volunteers.  Thank you, ladies!
