Image description

Empire War Workers in Britain recruitment poster. A female ATS (Auxiliary Territorial Service) worker, from the former colony of British Guiana, is shown re-treading a tyre, titled: EMPIRE WAR WORKERS IN BRITAIN - A VOLUNTEER FROM BRITISH GUIANA. The text reads: 'Many girls from the West Indies have volunteered for service with the Auxiliary Territorial Service. Some, volunteering for service abroad, have come to Britain; more are on their way. Every girl in the ATS has an equal chance of promotion or taking a commission. Above is Private Diana Williams, a recruit from British Guiana. Part of Diana's work consists of helping with the maintenance of army vehicles. Here she is seen beginning on the job of re-treading a tyre in the corner of a repair depot in the Midlands.' By British Civilian Organisation
