EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Sanctuary by the Sea: Millfield Seaside Home, Littlehampton, Sussex (1904-1930s) 2.. This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at the Millfield Seaside Home in Rustington, Littlehampton, Sussex, during the early 1900s. Established in 1904 by the Metropolitan Asylums Board, this unique institution was designed as a seaside sanatorium specifically for the care and treatment of children suffering from pulmonary tuberculosis. The home was situated near the coastline, with the belief that the fresh sea air and mild climate would aid in the recovery of these young patients. In this image, we see a group of children and nurses gathered outside the home, their expressions a mix of curiosity, playfulness, and determination. The children, dressed in simple clothing, appear to be engaged in an activity, perhaps a game or exercise session, under the watchful eyes of the dedicated nurses. The nurses, dressed in their Edwardian uniforms, display a sense of compassion and care, reflecting the commitment of the staff at Millfield Seaside Home to providing the best possible environment for their patients. During the early 1900s, tuberculosis was a major health concern, particularly among the poorer populations. The establishment of homes like Millfield Seaside Home was a significant step forward in the fight against this debilitating disease. The home later evolved into Millfield Hospital, continuing to serve the community until the 1930s. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, a time when the power of community, compassion, and the healing properties of nature came together to provide hope and care for those in need.
