Belfast played an important role during the Second World War producing munitions, ships, aircraft, ropes, parachutes, and uniforms. This made it a possible target for an air raid. Some families took the threat seriously and evacuated their children to the countryside where they would be safer.

Evacuees missed their parents so they wrote letters home to stay in touch and tell them about their experiences.
