In this episode, we journey back over 80 years to explore the life of Ivy Morris, a remarkable woman from Woodford, born in 1917.


As World War II began, Ivy faced a pivotal choice between working in an armaments factory or at the Avro assembly plant. Her daughter, Sandra, shares poignant stories of Ivy's experiences on the assembly line, where thousands of Lancasters were built and delivered to the RAF.


We delve into Ivy's life in a quaint Cheshire village, her memories of community, and the extraordinary lengths taken by the government to reunite her with her husband during the war.


Join us as we uncover the rich tapestry of Ivy's life amidst the backdrop of conflict and the simplicity of a bygone era.
