President's Report on Red Cross Work
The report notes 108 members with eight meetings and seven average attendance. Sub-branch Cerin has 17 members meeting twice yearly for planning. Ex servicemen were aided with clothing transport and hospital accommodation at Eva Hordern hospital. A New Australian family benefited and moved to a brighter town. Handicrafts were sold to fund welfare. Income from the District Library reached £208, and total year receipts were £6140 15? with expenses listed. Christmas parcels were sent to ex servicemen and hospital patients. The Nelson Park Ladies Club hosted a successful fundraiser and wreaths were placed on the Cenotaph on Anzac and Armistice days. Activities were publicised to 20% Orange fortnightly and Forbes Advocate with cinema screenings aiding fundraising. Gratitude extended to many individuals, banks, and the community for cooperation. A Parkes to Parkes sub-branch conference improved plans. In April the president attended the Sydney conference with notes shared in May. Reap Harvest winners were announced with third place in a 5000+ population section. A new reading stand reduced book handling, supporting ongoing welfare work since the war.
