The Charity
The film was made for and was about a charity called The Embankment Fellowship Centre. Part of the detective work to locate it was necessitated because in the intervening 60-plus years since the film was made, the Embankment Centre had merged with and been absorbed into other similar charities to form The Ex-Service Fellowship Centres. In 2007 the name was again changed to Veterans Aid, and Smith can currently be seen in its entirety on their website.
