About Eva Hart: Eva Miriam Hart was a survivor of the sinking of the RMS Titanic on 15 April 1912.

I find that the critics of voluntary service are all too often those who are prepared to accept such services when they require them but deride them with cynicism and scepticism when they see others helping and being helped.
