Anne Mobbs obituary

My aunt Anne Mobbs, who has died aged 84, was a community organiser and activist who was fully committed to promoting social justice.

Born into a Jewish family in Tottenham, north London, Anne was one of the five children of Miriam (nee Weinberg), a seamstress, and Nathan Wrightman, a carpenter. She and her two sisters were evacuated to Cornwall during the second world war, and after finishing her schooling she worked in secretarial roles at Granada TV, the BBC World Service and the National Film Theatre.
