Guides at Belsen

I know some Guides were sent to Belsen to teach the children how to play but you do not have them in your list. This is the list I have been sent by the Girl Guiding archivist.

Joan Barlee – County Dublin
Dorothy Bindloss – Devon
Stella Cunliffe – Surrey
Ruth Denton – Oxfordshire
Dorothy Fletcher – Surrey
Lilian Hancock – Surrey
Mona Johnson – Essex
Enid Whitton – Hampshire

When I have finished researching them I will let you have the details. Please can you add their names to your directory?
Thanks
Catherine Buchanan

Ed. Yes – we are really pleased to add these ladies to the directory and hope to find out more about them in due course.

This archive has been established after my own relative, Reg Price, took part in the liberation and subsequent humanitarian effort of Bergen Belsen in April 1945. Reg produced this famous sign at Belsen. As part of the 113th DLI, Reg and his comrades were at Belsen for 5 weeks and left when the last hut was empty and ceremonially burnt down. This archive compiles all available resources to build a lasting tribute to all the men and women who helped - any unit, any nationality. If you have a relative, or any info, on the relief effort at Belsen, we’d love you to please get in touch. Email us: liberator@belsen.co.ukThank you Nick Price CreativesFacebookTwitter
