College Mission Committee Papers, 1936-1939

Includes copies of the constitution; correspondence between E.A. Benians, S.J. Bailey, J.S. Boys-Smith, J.D. Packham, and others; notices; memoranda; summary reports; a manuscript draft copy of an appeal to members, compiled by E.E. Raven; and meeting agenda. Much of the correspondence concerns the governance, financial sustainability and development of the Boys Club, Hoxton - in particular, the proposed re-occupation of the original Club building at 64-66 Britannia Street in 1936. The building, which was adjacent to the premises on Westmoreland Place, would allow the Club to expand its membership by providing additional space for older boys. Included with one of the letters sent by Packham to Bailey in September 1936 is a draft version of a Sub-Committee report in which the future of the Britannia Street site is considered.

The file also contains a collection of letters addressed to Bailey (dated July-October 1936); documents concerning the Hoxton Market Christian Mission, c. 1938; and correspondence concerning the winding up of the College Mission in 1939.
