CUTHBERT CLAYTON  

support

Refusing to fight and kill during the First World War led many men like Cuthbert Clayton towards difficult and even dangerous work in relief organisations dedicated to saving and bettering lives. Cuthbert worked for the Friends War Victims Relief Service (FWVRS) after his Tribunal appearance in mid 1916. The FWVRS was dedicated to helping civilians whose lives had been ruined by the war and who often received no useful or significant aid from their Governments. Cuthbert’s time with the FWVRS from 1916 to 1923 saw him travel around Europe and work in Holland, Belgium and Poland providing medical care, education and economic support to vulnerable people and communities. In working with the FWVRS, Cuthbert made a personal and moral committment to work against the devastating results of war.
