Summary
Ywca War Workers' Club- Rest and Relaxation in Yeovil, Somerset, England, UK, 1944
Laundry and bathing facilities are provided at the YWCA war workers' club in Yeovil. Whilst their laundry is drying, girls can use the washing facilities themselves. Here we see Elsie Richards, in the left-hand cubicle, putting her shoes back on after her wash, whilst Eileen Hampshere (from Bournemouth) in the right-hand cubicle prepares to take a bath.
The UK Ministry of Information was established in 1939, at the outbreak of World War II. It was responsible for coordinating and controlling all government information and propaganda, both within the UK and abroad. The Ministry of Information was created to help the government communicate with the public and to ensure that important information was disseminated effectively. It was also responsible for managing the media and censoring certain types of information that might be harmful to morale or national security. The Ministry of Information played a crucial role in shaping public opinion during the war, and it worked closely with other government departments to develop and implement a range of propaganda campaigns. The Ministry of Information was dissolved in 1946, following the end of World War II.
