Story

We are raising £750 to remember Gladys Aylward, a missionary who often visited 20 Nelson Street, Chinatown, Liverpool, for a time when it was a Mission. Gladys Aylward went to China and saved hundreds of Chinese children from a Japanese invasion.

The plaque will also remember the Liverpool Chinese children who were in the 1958 film 'The Inn of Sixth Happiness' depicting Gladys Aylward's story from the book 'A Small Woman' written by Alan Burgess, starring Ingrid Bergman, Curt Jurgens and Robert Donat and filmed in North Wales.

This building was also the Chinese Republican Progress Club. The Chinese Ambassador Dr Wellington Koo visited on the day it was opened 29th December 1941. The building was formerly a Scandinavian Sailors' Home.
