LEAGUE OF LOYAL WOMEN OF AUSTRALIA, undated, in gilt and enamel (30mm), by E.C.Evans, ring top suspension with pin-back bar 'ENGINEERS', reverse numbered, 315. Small enamel chip in bar, otherwise very fine.
The League of Loyal Women of Australia was established in South Australia on 20 July 1915 essentially to establish a permanent fellowship among women and to secure co-operation and concentration of effort in the belief that the recovery of the British Empire from the war would greatly depend on the efforts of women and that they could best serve the country and the King by uniting in an endeavour to make themselves more efficient in the performance of those duties which especially devolved upon them. They also performed many fundraising ventures and established a Trench Comforts Fund for Australia's fighting men. The League ceased to operate in January 1923.
