Honouring the Canary Girls

In March, full Council recognised the significant contribution made during the First and Second World Wars by the ‘canary girls’ in the munitions factories in Rotherwas and asked the executive to consider erecting a plaque in Rotherwas to recognise their national role and sacrifices made in the war effort and to honour and remember their important work in the county.  This report responds to that request.
