EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph from January 1945 takes us back to an era when women played a crucial role in supporting the war effort on the home front. Meet Miss Joan Garside, a remarkable woman who defied societal norms by stepping into the male-dominated world of transportation during World War II. With her determined gaze and confident stance, it is evident that Miss Garside possesses both strength and resilience. Having previously dazzled audiences as a stage acrobat and trapeze artist, she fearlessly took on this new challenge as one of the pioneering female tram drivers. As we delve deeper into this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the immense sacrifices made by women like Miss Garside during those tumultuous years. They not only juggled their traditional roles but also stepped up to fill vital positions left vacant by men serving at war.
