IN 1983, Dang Nghien Bai, the ambassador of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, stayed for several days at a council house in Ulverston, Cumbria.
His host was a life long black communist Win Langton, secretary of South Cumbrian Medical Aid for Vietnam who had raised money over many years for that cause.
Recognition for her work had resulted in her being invited to Vietnam in 1980 for the opening of a British hospital there and led to the visit of the ambassador in gratitude for the work of Win Langton and her colleagues in Ulverston.
