EDITORS COMMENTS

Drought at Dorking, Surrey. December 1934" captures a poignant moment frozen in time during one of the most challenging periods in the region's history. In this evocative photograph taken by Horace Grant, we witness the harsh reality of a severe water shortage that plagued Dorking and its surroundings in the winter of 1934. The image depicts a scene where both young and old come together to confront this natural disaster head-on. A determined woman, her face etched with worry lines, stands beside an elderly man as they watch over a group of children diligently collecting precious drops of water using buckets. The sight is both heartwarming and sobering, showcasing humanity's resilience even in times of adversity. A weathered cart nearby serves as a reminder of resourcefulness amidst scarcity – perhaps used to transport collected water or aid those unable to fetch it themselves. This snapshot also hints at community spirit as it is believed to be taken outside the Methodist Sunday School, symbolizing how faith can unite people during difficult times. Grant's masterful composition captures not only the physical effects but also conveys emotional depth through his lens. As we gaze upon this historical artifact from nearly nine decades ago, we are reminded that challenges faced by our ancestors continue to shape our present-day narratives – urging us to appreciate every drop that flows freely from our taps today while inspiring us towards collective action for sustainable futures.
