In August 1970, Mrs Margaret Dick former President of the Glasgow and District Women’s Auxiliary Group (Licensed Trade), died in a Renfreweshire hospital.

Mrs Dick, wife of the late Mr Robert Dick, retired from the trade towards the end of 1966 after holding for 16 years the licence for Dick’s Bar, 517 Gallowgate, Glasgow, with which the Dick family had a long association.

Taking an enthusiastic interest in the activities of the Glasgow and District Women’s Auxiliary Group, she became their president in 1967, serving for two years in this capacity.
