Food for Britain Ball Raises Funds at Gloucester
The first postwar Food for Britain Ball at the Majestic in Gloucester drew over 200 couples and raised about £140 for the Food for Britain Appeal. Revenue from tickets, cloakroom, donations, and contests totalled £220. The event featured Jim Hunts Orchestra, gowns, flags, and a birthday tribute to Dr. Livermore, with supper served by a volunteer committee and prizes won in various competitions.
