Toc H
Toc H, a soldiers’ welfare and support organisation, was established in 1915, the result of its founder Reverend Phillip Byard (Tubby) Clayton’s experience at the start of the First World War. Progressively, many Toc H clubs were formed throughout the country. A North Staffordshire Branch, (originally No 32), was founded in December 1922. Continues below…
After initially being based in Hanley and Shelton, the Branch changed its name to Stoke-on-Trent in 1929 and moved into new premises next to the Spode/Copeland factory entrance in High Street (now Church Street), Stoke-upon-Trent.
