EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the daily life at Waifs and Strays Society Gordon Boys Home in Croydon, circa 1893. The Waifs and Strays Society was a leading children's charity in the UK, established in 1881 to provide shelter, care, and education for orphaned, abandoned, and neglected children. The Gordon Boys Home in Croydon was one of the many homes run by the Society, offering a safe and nurturing environment for boys in need. In this image, we see a group of young boys, dressed in their uniforms, gathered around a long table in the dining hall. The boys appear engaged in their meal, some chatting with each other, while others focus on their food. The table is set with plates, cups, and cutlery, and a large roast sits at the head of the table, suggesting a hearty and nourishing meal. The atmosphere in the room is warm and inviting, with a sense of community and camaraderie among the boys. The walls are adorned with portraits of prominent figures, including Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, reflecting the esteemed status of the Waifs and Strays Society and its commitment to providing high-quality care and services to children in need. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the Waifs and Strays Society Gordon Boys Home in Croydon, highlighting the importance of community, care, and support for children who were without families and resources during this time. The Society's work continues to inspire and inform modern-day children's services and welfare organizations, reminding us of the importance of providing a safe and nurturing environment for all children, regardless of their circumstances.
