And we are indebted, like others, to the Home Teaching Society in London for having started this useful branch of work amongst our Blind. A few years ago a small workshop was started in Hull, now it has developed, and employs between 30 and 40. We also have a Home for Blind Women, which is now full. A fee is paid by their friends or Guardians, and what they earn goes for their clothing. There is one other point I should like to mention, that if one or two members of the Committee would make an ...occasional visit, once in a year we will say, to the homes of the Blind, to see for themselves their condition, their views would be considerably affected. They would then see what extreme poverty exists, and under what difficulties many of our Blind have to live. Again, I have this privilege, that when I find anyone extremely neces- sitous, I can give them a grocery order to the value of five shillings without asking the Committee. We have four medical gentlemen who gratuitously supply medicine and attendance, and on presentation of a doctor's certificate the Blind can obtain sick relief in the shape of money, and many are sent every year to Convalescent Homes at the seaside, and assisted from time to time in many other ways.
