Contents Jobs Age and Relationships Age and Relationships Part 2 Fashion Fashion Part 2 Housewives School Voluntary Land Girls Canary girls Women's Role

Jobs In the war there was so many jobs for females/women to do! Even if they were doing male jobs. There are a few jobs I will list such as: Doctors Miners Farmers Scientists School teachers There are also so much more that I have not listed but you can find out about on the internet!

Age and Relations At the start only single women were signed up to war, but half way through the year of % of single women and 80% started working in factories and on the land of the armed forces.

640,00 women joined the armed forces 55,000 with guns serving essentials 80,000 in the land army And many more who flew unarmed air crafts, drove ambulances and were nurses! These are numbers are amazingly high and that shows how much women were important to the War!!!!

Fashion As soon as the men left for war the women's lifestyle became a bit different. They loved fashion ( we still do ) but that was one of the parts of their life that had to be changed. They eventually learned to live with what they had instead of what they wanted. Even if fashion wasn’t important because everybody was focused on the war, people still dressed fancy before and after the war. Their everyday inside clothes were hats dresses, gloves and stockings. And they wore trousers, jumpers and jackets outside the house.

More Fashion Their shoes were very simple. They were either oxfords, pumps or sandals. Because of the law to limit fabrics ect women's clothing had to be changed. It was hard because the always thought their clothing and appearance had to sparkle.

Housewives Women who went out to work played a vital part in the war effort. If you stayed at home you were important as well. Housewives were looking after the house and Family, they also looked after their neighbours children to let them go to work. War time shortages meant that everyday tasks became quite difficult. Food was rationed and housewives had to spend time queuing for their share.

School With the staggering amounts of men away to war there was a terrible shortage of teachers. Women who were retired or were married got brought back into the classes to teach. ( Which was difficult because there was a shortages of classes!) Many teachers was evacuated with their schools. Like the children they had to leave the classes/schools and learn to live with strangers rather than their mums and dads!

Voluntary Staggering amounts of women helped with the war effort by doing voluntary work. The women’s voluntary service was founded in By 1945 the WVS had over 1 MILLION MEMBERS !!! They were out on the streets every night during the Blitz providing help and refreshments. Women working for the WVS set up mobile canteens to provide tea and sandwiches for exhausted rescue workers and victims of the air raid.

Land Girls When the land girls were around they did a wide range of jobs, such as: Milking cows, lambing, managing poultry, ploughing, gathering crops, digging ditches, catching rats and taking out farm maintenance work. Thousands of women worked in Timber crops, chopping down trees and running sawmills.

Canary Girls Around 950,000 British worked in munitions factories during the Second World War, making weapons and bullets. Munitions work was often well-paid, but involved long hours, sometimes up to seven days a week. Workers were also at serious risk from accidents with dangerous machinery or when working with highly explosive material.

Navy Service The women who were in the Navy were involved in loading torpedoes onto submarines and planning battle progresses in operation rooms. They did office work, learnt communications and signalling, weather forecasting, engineering and driving.

Women's Role In WW2 women played a very important in fact VITAL PART in the war and in the country's success! But, as with World War One, women at the end of World War Two, found that the advances they had made were greatly reduced when the soldiers returned from fighting abroad.
