EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the interior of a Ragged School Union dinner in Camberwell, South London, in the year 1900. The Ragged School Union was an organization dedicated to providing education and care for the poorest and most disadvantaged children in the city. In this image, we see rows of children seated at long tables, each one holding a bowl of steaming hot soup. Their expressions range from focused concentration on their meals to moments of playful interaction with their neighbors. The atmosphere is one of communal warmth and care, as the children gather together for a nourishing meal. The Ragged School Union played a vital role in the welfare of children in the 1900s, providing not only education but also a sense of community and support for those who were orphaned or otherwise in need. This photograph offers a poignant glimpse into the past, reminding us of the importance of care and compassion for all children, especially those who are most vulnerable.
