A Heartfelt Appeal for Support: Reedham Orphanage, Purley, 1930 This evocative advertisement from 1930 calls upon the public's generosity to help support the vital work of Reedham Orphanage in Purley. Located in the picturesque Surrey countryside, the orphanage provided a loving and nurturing environment for children who had been orphaned, abandoned, or left destitute. The advertisement features a touching image of a group of children, their faces filled with hope and curiosity, as they gather around a table for a meal. The caption above reads, "Can you help us to help these children?" The appeal for funds is a testament to the belief that every child deserves a safe and stable home, regardless of their circumstances. Reedham Orphanage was more than just a place of shelter; it was a haven where children received the care, education, and emotional support they needed to thrive. The advertisement highlights the various services provided by the orphanage, including clothing, medical care, and vocational training. The appeal for funds was not a one-time request but a continuous effort to ensure the ongoing sustainability of the orphanage. The advertisement concludes with a heartfelt plea, "Your kindness will make a real difference to these children's lives." This advertisement serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of community support in providing essential services to those in need. It also highlights the enduring belief that every child deserves a loving and supportive environment in which to grow and flourish. By contributing to the work of Reedham Orphanage, the public played a crucial role in making a positive impact on the lives of these vulnerable children.
