EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photo print, we see the esteemed retired schoolteacher couple, Mr and Mrs Claude Epps, arriving at number 10 Downing Street in London. Hailing from the charming village of Fishbourne near Chichester, Sussex, they have come to meet Lord Moyniham, treasurer of Sir Winston Churchill's birthday fund. The purpose of their visit is to present a generous cheque worth £150,000 to the Premier on behalf of the fund. It was Mrs Epps herself who initially proposed the idea of establishing a special fund dedicated to celebrating Sir Winston Churchill's birthday. Now aged 77, she has been actively involved with her husband in supporting this noble cause ever since its inception. The photograph captures a momentous occasion that took place on November 30th, 1954. It serves as a testament to the dedication and commitment demonstrated by individuals like Mr and Mrs Claude Epps towards honoring one of Britain's most iconic figures. As we gaze upon this image from TopFoto's collection titled "Britian, London: Retired schoolteacher Mr and Mrs Claude Epps" we are reminded not only of their remarkable contribution but also of how ordinary citizens can make an extraordinary impact through their selfless endeavors.
