EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at Barnardos Boys Home, Stepney Causeway, circa 1900. The image shows a group of young boys intently focused on their work in the home's carpentry shop. Dressed in simple, practical clothing, they stand at their workbenches, each one engrossed in the task at hand. The room is filled with the scent of fresh wood and the sound of hammers striking nails. Barnardos, founded by Dr. Thomas Barnardo in 1867, was a leading children's charity dedicated to improving the lives of vulnerable and neglected children in Britain. The Boys Home at Stepney Causeway was one of many institutions established by Barnardo's to provide shelter, education, and training to boys in need. The carpentry shop was just one of many workshops and training facilities offered by the organization, designed to teach practical skills and help the boys become self-sufficient and productive members of society. The boys in this photograph appear to be deeply engaged in their work, a testament to the value of the training they were receiving at Barnardos. The image offers a glimpse into the daily life of the home and the dedication of the staff who worked tirelessly to provide a safe and nurturing environment for these boys. The scene is a poignant reminder of the important role that charities like Barnardos played in shaping the lives of countless children throughout history.
