Additional Information

The Civilian Maimed and Limbless Association was an organization aimed at providing opportunities for the disabled. It was formed in Australia in 1949. Members began a workshop in which they were able to apply a trade in order to learn new skills and obtain wages. The group also conducted fund-raising activities and managed a physical headquarters at English Street in Camperdown, according to a 1955 article.
