EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at St. Katharine's Children's Home in Southbourne-on-Sea, Dorset, circa 1921. The Waifs and Strays Society, a charitable organization dedicated to providing shelter and care for destitute, abandoned, and orphaned children, established the home in Church Road, Southbourne, near Christchurch, in 1920. In the image, a group of kind-faced staff members stand proudly outside the home, surrounded by a joyful assembly of children. The children, dressed in their Sunday best, smile broadly at the camera, their eyes reflecting a sense of happiness and security. The staff, dressed in their uniforms, appear warm and nurturing, their expressions conveying a deep sense of care and commitment to the children in their charge. The backdrop of the photograph is the picturesque seaside town of Southbourne-on-Sea, with its sandy beaches and rolling waves. The home's whitewashed walls and red-tiled roof blend seamlessly into the landscape, creating a sense of tranquility and peace. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, a time when community and charity played a vital role in providing for the most vulnerable members of society. It serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of compassion, care, and the power of a loving home to transform the lives of children in need.
