EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this heartwarming print captured on Friday, September 29th, 1972, we witness the retirement celebration of two remarkable women who have dedicated a combined total of 98 years to alleviating the aches and pains of countless individuals at Droitwich's renowned St Andrews Brine Baths. Miss Evelyn Priddy (left) and Miss Eliza Jane Diggory stand side by side, radiating warmth and wisdom as they bid farewell to their beloved profession. Miss Diggory embarked on her journey as a receptionist at the Royal Hotel Brine Baths in 1914. It was there that she forged an enduring friendship with Miss Priddy, who joined the St Andrews baths seventeen years later. Together, these extraordinary ladies formed an unbreakable bond while selflessly tending to others' well-being. The photograph encapsulates not only their shared history but also represents an era when alternative treatments like brine baths held great significance in Worcestershire's therapeutic landscape. The pools shimmer with salt-infused waters known for their healing properties—a testament to the transformative power of natural springs. As we admire this snapshot from Birmingham Post's Memory Lane Prints collection, let us celebrate these exceptional women whose dedication has left an indelible mark on Droitwich's community. Their legacy serves as a reminder that compassion knows no bounds and that even small acts can bring immense comfort to
