| dc.description.abstract | On 28 February 1919 the Irish War Hospital Depot in Dublin closed its doors. This voluntary organisation mostly run, staffed, and funded by women, played a significant role in the vast supply chain of goods shipped overseas to hospitals, sending much needed surgical supplies. Begun on 6 December 1915, the depot was the central Irish node for the collection and dissemination of items which were manufactured by up to 6000 Irish women and men in over 300 work groups across Ireland. This article sheds lights on some of the communicational networks which made this war effort possible. Women across Ireland acted as recruiters and managers, coordinating the daily work of local teams and reporting back to Dublin. The sphagnum moss collection established by Augusta Dillon (Lady Clonbrock) and her female acquaintances in County Galway will serve as one example. | eng |
