Has anyone here got any information or personal experience of the above moral welfare association? The Jarrow Deanery Moral Welfare Association was a christian based organisation working to "help" single mums/single pregnant women (today we'd call it an adoption agency).
In 1964 it was based in King Street, South Shields, andit worked hand in hand with the Salvation Army mother and baby home "Hopedene" which was on Elswick Road, Newcastle.
I'm not interested in the official charity records, ie active years/finances etc etc, I'm looking for anyone that has direct personal experience or memories of that organisation.
Many thanks.
