The Ideal Home Show returns this week. Originally called the Ideal Home Exhibition and organised by the Daily Mail, it began back in 1908.
In 1920 Blind Veterans UK (then known as St Dunstan’s) had a stall at the Exhibition which was held, as it is today, at the Olympia centre in Kensington, London.
We continued to be involved with the Ideal Home Exhibition, and a report in the Review in 1933 describes how our Stand had expanded to include a number of our blind veterans demonstrating telephone, joinery and other skills.
