Ex Resident Of Rothwell Childrens Home

A Memory of Rothwell.

I was in the Home from 1939 -1946 along with two sisters and a brother. Our name was then Caradice, the girls were in Home 4, and my brother was in Home 5. The lady in charge of Home 4 was Miss Silverwood, and the man in charge of all the homes was Mr Hollister. I have nothing but lovely memories of being there. Anyone who would like to get in touch with me please do, I would be really pleased.
