EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Day in the Dairy: Young Women at Work, National Children's Home, Edgworth, Lancashire" This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at the National Children's Home in Edgworth, Lancashire, where several young women are engaged in their daily chores at the dairy. The image offers a glimpse into the lives of the residents, providing a poignant reminder of the past. The National Children's Home, also known as the Lancashire branch, was established to provide care and support for orphaned, abandoned, and neglected children. The home, which later became Crowthorn Special Needs Residential School, operated from the late 1800s until its closure in 2002. In this photograph, the young women are seen hard at work, tending to the dairy. Their expressions suggest focus and determination as they carry out their tasks. The pristine white aprons they wear are evidence of their dedication to their duties. The dairy, a crucial aspect of the home's self-sufficient farm, would have provided fresh milk and dairy products for the residents and staff. A poster on the wall advertises "Delicious Pure Cream," emphasizing the importance of the dairy in the daily operations of the home. The image offers a poignant reminder of the industrious spirit that thrived within the walls of the National Children's Home, despite the challenges its residents faced. The photograph, though the date remains unknown, serves as a testament to the resilience and determination of the young women who lived and worked at the National Children's Home in Edgworth. It offers a glimpse into a bygone era, reminding us of the importance of care, support, and the power of community in the lives of children in need.
