The Revd Benjamin Waugh - A Visionary Victorian Social Reformer and Founder of NSPCC
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white portrait captures the essence of The Revd Benjamin Waugh, a remarkable figure in 19th-century British society. With an intense gaze and a stern yet compassionate expression, he exudes determination and purpose. Benjamin Waugh dedicated his life to fighting for the rights and protection of children during a time when their welfare was often overlooked. As a reverend, social reformer, and campaigner, he founded the UK charity NSPCC (National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children), leaving an indelible mark on history. In this engraving from "The Review of Reviews" published in 1891, we see Waugh portrayed as a man ahead of his time. His activism resonated with many during the Victorian era, where child labor was rampant and abuse often went unnoticed or ignored. Waugh's tireless efforts paved the way for significant changes in societal attitudes towards children's well-being. His work not only raised awareness about child cruelty but also led to legislative reforms that protected vulnerable young lives. As we look at this powerful image today, let us remember The Revd Benjamin Waugh as an inspirational leader who fought tirelessly against injustice. His legacy continues through NSPCC's ongoing mission to safeguard children across the United Kingdom. (Photo credit: © Ken Welsh from Fine Art Finder)
