Most objects in our collection were donated by people with a link to the local area. Gertrude Hawkes was a volunteer nurse at the Warren VAD Hospital, Leamington, during the First World War. She bought this album at Burgis & Colbourne, a department store on the Parade, and her patients and colleagues filled it with personal messages, poems, photographs, and drawings. Gertrude’s granddaughter donated the album to LSAG&M in 2023.
