1. Title: "A Joyous Afternoon at Ormerod Home, St Annes on Sea (1913)" In this enchanting photograph, a group of children frolics and plays in the lush, verdant grounds of the Ormerod Home in St Annes on Sea, Lancashire, England. Established and run by the Church Extension Association, this charitable institution provided a nurturing environment for children in need, offering them education, care, and support. The year is 1913, and the children, dressed in their Sunday best, appear to be enjoying a well-deserved break from their daily routines. Their laughter and joy are palpable as they engage in various activities, from playing with a ball to having a picnic on the grass. The serene atmosphere of the home's gardens is a stark contrast to the harsh realities of life that many of these children would have faced outside its walls. The Ormerod Home, with its red-brick façade and picturesque surroundings, stands proudly in the background. The home's nameplate, adorned with intricate lettering, adds a sense of history and tradition to the scene. The Church Extension Association, a Christian organization dedicated to extending the influence of the Church in the community, took great pride in providing a safe and loving environment for these children. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the importance of community support and the transformative power of a nurturing environment. It offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the joy and innocence of childhood, as well as the compassion and dedication of those who cared for these children at the Ormerod Home in St Annes on Sea.
