Cecil Jackson-Cole

Jackson-Cole was part of the Oxford Committee for Famine Relief founded in 1942, serving as its first honorary secretary and helping its post-war growth into Oxfam. The permanent Broad Street shop opened in 1947 gives the story a useful practical focus: a cause needs ways to bring in support repeatedly. He worked within a founding group and a growing organisation. Study the administrative and fundraising arrangements to see how a local wartime committee could acquire a much longer life.
