'Hi, here is some information relating to the photograph.

The group from Nelson pictured attended the review in 1937 amongst a total of 5000 ambulance workers.

I have found a Nelson Leader article reporting on the event, including the photograph which was taken by D. C. Holmes. The article is dated 28 May 1937.
