The 'Jarrow Crusade' in AI

Posted by Norman on 17/12/2025, 10:46 am

I find it amazing how photographs can be made into 'movies'. Take a look at this 'Movie' of the marvellous and successful Jarrow Marchers in 1936.
They were the reason Sir John Jarvis an Industrialist & MP for Surrey got involved & brought work to Jarrow & the area.

My Granddad and my Uncle Val were there, and up until at least the early to mid 70s my Aunty Mary kept one of the Banners in her house.

My great uncle Martin Joyce was one of the Marchers I’m so proud of him and his fellow walkers x

Your great uncle and those other Marchers were Hero's and touched the heart of Tory MP Sir John Jarvis who created a lot of work for us and using his own money.
