Don't know this quiz and don't know what it means, but WVRAIDS looks fitting. (R)ouses support AID in Womens Voluntary Service.

Don't laugh if it is way out.

You are absolutely brilliant and have made a septuagenarian very happy !!
Good, a pleasure - good luck.
I don't have a 'posh' dictionary and Google can't find the word Wvraids', so could some kind soul give me a definition please
I have ABRAIDS for 5a.
The V and B are alternative spellings for 6d.
That explains my conundrum then; thanks iminoz.
The reason I was lost, as I said when answering.
ABRAIDS will be right. I can see the definition and it's BRA (support) in AIDS. (I realise you all probably know that but someone may wonder)
Thanks f/f, very uplifting. I was guessing quite blindly at 19.52.
Just wanted to keep everyone abreast of things
