EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of tranquility and tenderness at St. Martins Home for Boys in Surbiton, Surrey, circa 1903. The image shows a group of boys and staff members gathered in the lush garden of the home, with one young boy lovingly stroking a cat. Established by the Waifs and Strays Society, St. Martins Home provided a safe and nurturing environment for orphaned, abandoned, and neglected boys. The Society's mission was to rescue and rehabilitate these children, giving them the opportunity to grow into responsible and productive members of society. The garden, filled with vibrant flowers and lush greenery, served as a sanctuary where the boys could play, learn, and heal. The gentle interaction between the boy and the cat highlights the loving and caring atmosphere of the home, where the children were not only provided with basic necessities but also with the emotional support and affection they so desperately needed. This photograph offers a poignant glimpse into the past, reminding us of the importance of compassion and care for vulnerable children.
