Extract from the Cardiff Poor Cripples Aid Society Minutes Book, Volume One, covering Committee meetings until 4 February 1935. The extract is from a meeting held at Mr German's Exchange Office on 8 April 1925. It reads: "The Meeting opened with Dr Picker, MOH, who spoke of the orthopaedic work now done at the City Hall Clinic and its operation with the Prince of Wales Hospital and with our Society. Mr D K Roberts suggested that Dr Picker again approached us when his new plans are further developed."

Earlier meetings in the volume are not that much organised, but meetings become more organised after March 1925 with a new Chairman, Sir James German.

Cardiff Poor Cripples Aid Society was active between 1908 and 1949 officially, but continued its work informally decades after, until eventually handing the last funds to the local Salvation Army. The main activities of the Society was to provide medical and financial assistance to disabled people as well as to help them find employment.
