Talk by Naomi Clifford

What was it like to drive an ambulance through the London Blitz? Who joined up and why?

The volunteer ambulance service has been called ‘the forgotten service’. Naomi explores the reasons for this and takes a look at the lives of some of the people who joined up.

Naomi is a history writer with a particular interest in the lives of women, especially those neglected by posterity.
