Community sewing room aids service members drive
Volunteer efforts in Cairns and surrounding communities mobilize to mend clothing for servicemen. The WA Cairns branch and Catholic United Services Auxiliary organize mending sessions, hot showers, and distribution of uniforms. Members and guests like Mrs Manly, Mesdames Penny, Absall, Hannan, and Jeanette Linedale coordinate four to five days of work, with 48 shorts, 22 trousers, 33 wool items, and other gear repaired or altered. The drive urges more county women to help from home or Memorial Home, noting limited manpower and ongoing requests for marked items to prevent loss.
