In January 1890 notices appeared in the “Bradford Observer” inviting people to form a Cinderella Club to “reach and afford amusement” to the poor children of Bradford By the 24th of January a meeting had been held, the club was formed and the first treat arranged.
The first act of the newly formed Bradford Cinderella Club was a “tea and entertainment given to 200 poor children from all parts of the borough” at The Bradford Coffee Tavern on Saturday February 1st 1890.
Sadly, some 119 years later, there are children who need that bit of help in providing an extra special treat. Gladly, the Bradford Cinderella Club is still here meeting the needs of those children. |
