EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scene of a bustling bootmakers shop at Barnardo's Home in Stepney Causeway, East London, circa 1900. Thomas Barnardo, a renowned doctor and philanthropist, established this home for destitute boys in 1870. The boys were not only provided with accommodation but also given essential training to help them earn their living and break the cycle of poverty. The photograph showcases a cobbler at work, meticulously repairing a pair of shoes on a well-worn bench. The cobbler's tools are spread out on the table, ready for use. The boys in the background are engrossed in their tasks, focused on their work. The conditions of the shop are basic but the boys seem content, knowing that they are learning a valuable skill that will serve them well in the future. Barnardo's Home was a pioneering institution in its approach to addressing the root causes of poverty and homelessness in Victorian and Edwardian England. The home provided essential facilities such as medical care, education, and industry to help the boys become self-sufficient and contribute to society. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the challenging conditions faced by the boys and the important role that charities like Barnardo's played in providing them with a chance at a better future.
