EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the dormitory blocks at the Salvation Army Colony in Hadleigh, Essex, circa 1909. Founded in 1891 as a farming colony, the centre has a rich history that spans over a century. Initially established to provide employment training and housing for the poor and destitute, the Salvation Army Colony in Hadleigh became a beacon of hope and support for those in need. The Victorian and Edwardian era buildings, including these dormitory blocks, reflect the dedication and commitment of the Salvation Army towards creating a self-sufficient community. The centre's residents were taught various skills, such as farming, to enable them to secure employment and improve their living conditions. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a poignant reminder of the challenges faced by those living in poverty during this period. Despite the harsh living conditions, the residents of the Salvation Army Colony in Hadleigh were able to find solace and support within their community. Today, the centre continues to operate as an employment training centre, carrying on the legacy of its founding principles. The dormitory blocks, though perhaps updated over the years, still stand as a testament to the enduring impact of the Salvation Army's efforts to provide opportunities and hope to those in need.
