The front cover of this historical document bears the instructions to return it to the Greenwich food office if lost, highlighting the importance placed on these precious books.
The events depicted in this image speak volumes about the sacrifices made by individuals on the home front during times of conflict.

It was a time when communities came together to support each other through difficult circumstances.
Looking at this ration book from 1942, we are reminded of the resilience and resourcefulness shown by people during wartime. Despite facing hardships and uncertainty, they found ways to make do with what they had and persevere through challenging times.
