Auckland Libraries

Oral historians and authors Ruth Greenaway and Megan Hutching, talk about the history of this Auckland organisation which began with an orphan home in the central city in 1858 and now works with its community in south Auckland. While society has changed since the mid-nineteenth-century, the problems of today’s clients bear a marked resemblance to the issues confronting those who came for help in the early days. This talk was recorded as part of the Auckland Libraries Heritage Talks series on 27 April 2022. Threads of caring: A history of the Anglican Trust for Women and Children is available to borrow from Auckland Libraries. https://discover.aucklandlibraries.govt.nz/iii/encore/record/C__Rb4045645
