As Neale1961 advised earlier - If you have her 1921 birth cert is there a (home) address listed for the mother? You could cross-reference both in the 1921 census on FindMyPast.

Is there an address for the mother on the birth cert?

Not much to go on if there's no mother's name or address on the birth cert.

Get in touch with Dr Barnardos. Sorry, I have no idea if they charge for general enquiries.

Not much to go on if there's no mother's name or address on the birth cert.

The document @Brendaedna has is a short certificate, issued sometime later - I've sent some advice on obtaining the full version ( which will have the mother's details) and then how to research further.
