Social History — 1977
Charity collection box
This sweet jar has been adapted into a collection box and was used to raise funds for a children's party to celebrate the Silver Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II in 1977. The Rock Estate Residents' Association in Islington organised both the collection and the street party. All families living on the estate were invited to join the festivities that took place on Monsell Road near Finsbury Park.
