The Women’s Land Army- Cinderellas of the Fields

By Ian Everest

Often referred to as the Cinderella’s of the Fields, Ian will explain how he first became interested in the Women’s Land Army and how it led to many years of research and collecting 100’s of photos of the girls working on the farms. The talk will look at its history – how it started, its role during two world wars and it its recognition in more recent times. A wide range of photos will show the women at work and look at the huge contribution they made in feeding the country at times of war.
