A quarter of a million worked on the land. The greatest increase of women workers was in engineering. Over 700,000 of these women worked in the highly dangerous munitions industry. -
women (part 3)
then they would oof been left with relitives or childrens shelters. So clearly the kids had it hard in ww1. Short term effects are that lack of home stability. Elderly would be not as well supported. long term. There would be more men to help fight. Women would learn a new trade. Children may may loose both parents. Less shops open. -
Women (part 2)
Industries that had previously excluded women now welcomed them. There was a particular demand for women to do heavy work such as unloading coal, stoking furnaces and building ships. So we can see the crucial part women played in world war one. However this made a huge impact on alot of people, mainly their children.

Effects: The main effect of the tanks being made on the people , was that there was a greater need for engineers. -
