Women Run a Boat- Life on Board the Canal Barge 'heather Bell', 1942
After unloading the barge, Miss March swings the 'HEATHER BELL' around in order to head downhill towards the collieries to collect a load of slack. They will probably be travelling away from Tipton Green on the Cotterill Colliery Branch of the Birmingham Canal. This photograph appears to have been taken from the bridge which crosses the canal.
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.
