Anderson and Morrison shelter
The Anderson Shelter was the first shelter that was given in World War 2 but i don't really remember the other air raid shelter
A Morrison Shelter was issued to people who didn't have a garden and therefore couldn't use an Anderson shelter. It was a protective cage that could be assembled inside a house and would protect from falling masonry etc. but not from a direct hit.
The Londoners could have Anderson or Morrison Shelters set up at their homes to take shelter in during the Blitz. There were public places for them to use and the Air Raid Wardens helped everyone get to a shelter.
An air raid shelter is a general term for structures designed to protect civilians from aerial attacks, particularly during wartime. The Anderson shelter was a specific type of backyard shelter made of corrugated steel, designed for families to build in their gardens for protection against bombings during World War II. In contrast, the Morrison shelter was a more compact, indoor shelter that resembled a table and was intended for use inside homes, providing protection from debris while allowing families to continue living in their homes during air raids.

Anderson shelters were deemed unsafe for indoor use and some people didn't want to have to use public air raid shelters therefore Lord John Fleetwood Baker created the Morrison shelter (named after an MP, Herbert Morrison) for indoor use in normal houses.

Air raid shelters, such as the Anderson shelter and the Morrison shelter, were commonly used in World War 2 to protect civilians from air raids and bombings. These shelters were designed to provide a safe place for people to take cover during enemy attacks.
