Oral history interview with Edith Farrar and Freda Addison, local fundraisers and helpers for the Leeds Children Holiday Home, Silverdale.

Edith Farrar and Freda Addison both live in Bare. Edith and Freda were local fundraisers and helpers for the Leeds Children Holiday Home, Silverdale (which offered free holidays for deprived children from Leeds). The Holiday Home was closing, after over 100 years, in the week after this interview. Although their direct involvement with the holiday home only stretches over the last 13 years or so this oral history marks the disappearance of an important feature in Silverdale.
