In the company there were 5 patrols .Activities included assistance in the Trefoil Hutt Appeal, gardening, cleaning cars, cutting grass, cleaning silver and scrubbing floors. Savings from those jobs and a shop day, totalled Two hundred and sixty pounds of rags had been collected for the Air Force, 29 camouflage nets had been made and three-quarters of a sack of rose hips had been gathered. Referring to the Martinborough company the report said that it had also worked hard for the Trefoil Hut appeal. A total of £25 was raised.
