I am looking for ex Wrens - anyone who joined during 1947-81 and trained at HMS Dauntless (Reading) in the UK. I'm compiling a searchable, accessible archive of Divisional "class" photos that only ex wrens may access. The collection also encourages old friends to be rediscovered, memories shared and new friendships/support groups formed.

Thirty thousand wrens went through the gates of the training establishment known as HMS Dauntless during the 34 years in operation. That is about 40 divisions (classes) per year which means a rough total of 1,360 classes which equals the potential for 1,360 class photos. We currently have around 600 photos ... 42.5 per cent of what's possible.

If you were, or you know of any ladies who were, in the Wrens, please get in touch with us because we'd love to hear from you and quite possibly give the opportunity to reconnect with old classmates.
