This poignant print from Memory Lane Prints captures a powerful moment in history. Taken on the 1st of December, 1940, it showcases Coventry Corporation workers selflessly delivering water to residents who have fallen victim to the devastating bombings during World War Two. In the midst of chaos and destruction caused by the Blitz, these brave individuals can be seen carrying buckets filled with life-sustaining water through rubble-strewn streets. Their determination and resilience shine through as they navigate their way amidst the ruins, ensuring that those affected by this tragedy receive a basic necessity - clean drinking water.
