“The Women’s Timber Corps in Suffolk” by Nicky Reynolds.

A couple of years ago Nicky gave a popular talk on the Women’s Land Army, now she will talk about Suffolk “lumberjills”

Members of the Women’s Timber Corps, known as ‘Lumber Jills’, were employed directly by the Home Timber Production Department during the war, which paid their wages. They were employed directly by the British state, unlike Land Girls who were employed by independent farmers or County.
