Rustington, a peaceful seaside town in Littlehampton, Sussex, was a haven of tranquility and healing after the turmoil of World War I. In 1919, Peace Celebrations took place, marking the end of the conflict and the beginning of a new era. The Millfield Home became a beacon of hope for those in need of rest and rejuvenation. Nurses carried out balneotherapy, a therapeutic treatment using mineral-rich waters, to help soldiers recover. Enid's lithograph from 1920 captures the serene beauty of Rustington's coastline. The Home for Soldiers Children, Lady Maud Barrett Home, and the Rustington Convalescent Home provided shelter and care for those affected by the war. Millfield Seaside Home offered sea bathing as part of the healing process, with the calming waters of the English Channel providing relief and relaxation. Rustington, BN16 3 Map, remains a cherished memory for those who sought solace in its embrace after the horrors of war.
