This print titled ""As Good as New" Shops in Coventry. Canteen trainees Yvonne (left) and Beverley hand sandwiches to visitors. 5th December 1984" takes us back to the vibrant atmosphere of the 1980s. The image showcases two young women, Yvonne and Beverley, who are part of a canteen training program in Coventry's "As Good as New" shops. The scene is filled with warmth and community spirit as Yvonne and Beverley diligently serve sandwiches to delighted visitors. Their smiles radiate genuine enthusiasm for their work, reflecting the dedication they bring to this important role within their local community. Beyond its visual appeal, this photograph also holds historical significance by shedding light on race relations during that era. It serves as a testament to the progress made towards inclusivity and equality in Coventry at that time.
