The Blitz lasted from 7 Sep 1940 - 11 May 1941, where
the German Luftwaffe constantly bombed Britain, often night by night, during this part of Wold War Two.
ARP wardens ensured the blackout was observed, sounded air raid sirens, safely guided people into public air raid shelters, issued and checked gas masks, evacuated areas around unexploded bombs, rescued people where possible from bomb damaged properties, located temporary accommodation for those who had been bombed out, and reporting to their control centre about incidents, fires, etc. Also to call in other services as required.
