EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Boys Tending Pigs at the East Harling Branch of NIPRCC, Norfolk, 1914" This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at the East Harling branch of the National Institutions for Persons Requiring Care and Control (NIPRCC), located in Norfolk, England, in 1914. The site, originally known as the Guiltcross Union Workhouse, had undergone several transformations since its establishment. In 1904, it became the Eastern Counties Inebriates Reformatory, run by the Reverend Harold Burden. Later, it was re-purposed to house feeble-minded children. The image shows a group of boys tending to pigs on the farm, which was part of the charitable organization's efforts to provide practical training and skills to its residents. The boys, dressed in simple clothing, work together to care for the pigs, demonstrating a sense of camaraderie and responsibility. The scene is reminiscent of a simpler time, where the rhythms of farm life offered structure and purpose to those in need. The National Institutions for Persons Requiring Care and Control was a philanthropic organization that aimed to provide care and support for individuals who were considered socially and economically marginalized, including the poor, the disabled, and those with mental health issues. The organization's work was driven by a desire to improve the lives of these individuals and to provide them with the skills and opportunities necessary to reintegrate into society. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a poignant reminder of the historical context and the challenges faced by vulnerable communities during this period. It also highlights the important role that charitable organizations, like NIPRCC, played in addressing the complex social issues of the time.
