Gone to War as Sister: Constance Brooks - traveller

One of 16 illustrated panels prepared by Janet Scarfe and volunteers from the East Melbourne Historical Society as part of an exhibition, Gone to War as Sister, commemorating the lives and work of the many women who served as nurses in the First World War and had connection with East Melbourne or Jolimont. This panel tells of the life, work and war experiences of Constance Brooks who lived at Fitzroy Terrace, 144 Clarendon Street, East Melbourne. It is a photo of her nursing cape which was used as the logo for the exhibition.
