GB 106 7OCH [1940-1949] fonds 0.25 A box (1 folder) Chandler , Olive , fl 1945

Olive Chandler (fl 1945) appears to have had an interest in several women's groups in the period at the end of the Second World War. She apparently contacted both the National Council of Women and the National Federation of Women's Institutes to gain more information about their structures and their aims before collecting the material that they, in turn, sent her.

Miss Chandler donated the archive to The Fawcett Library in 1993.

The archive consists of 1 folder containing:

1) Letter to Miss Chandler from the National Council of Women of Great Britain explaining their aims and enclosing a list of affiliated societies, 1944 (2 items)

2) Instructional leaflets from the National Federation of Women's Institutes, 1940s (6 items): What a Women's Institute is and what it does; Good programmes for hard times - a leaflet for programmes sub-committees; to the WI Chairman-President; to the WI Honorary Treasurer; to the WI Committee Member; to the WI Honorary Secretary.

This collection is available for research. Readers are advised to contact The Women's Library in advance of their first visit.
