Summary

Morrison Shelter on Trial- Testing the New Indoor Shelter, 1941

This photograph shows the Morrison shelter still intact after the rubble and debris of the destroyed house has been cleared away, following a test of the shelter somewhere in Britain in 1941.

The UK Ministry of Information was established in 1939, at the outbreak of World War II. It was responsible for coordinating and controlling all government information and propaganda, both within the UK and abroad. The Ministry of Information was created to help the government communicate with the public and to ensure that important information was disseminated effectively. It was also responsible for managing the media and censoring certain types of information that might be harmful to morale or national security. The Ministry of Information played a crucial role in shaping public opinion during the war, and it worked closely with other government departments to develop and implement a range of propaganda campaigns. The Ministry of Information was dissolved in 1946, following the end of World War II.
