Joyce’s story

Joyce Starling

Joyce was about 10 years old. The family had an Anderson shelter in the kitchen which they used to sleep in and then her father dug out a shelter for them in the garden. He even wallpapered it! She remembers keeping chickens. They lived in Chesterton and Joyce went to Shirley School.
