EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, Princess Elizabeth, who would later become Queen Elizabeth II, pays a visit to Portland Training College on June 29, 1949. The Princess, dressed in a stylish suit and hat, is seen accepting a casket from Winifred, Duchess of Portland, after laying the foundation stone of the main building of the college. The Portland Training College, located in Dorset, England, was established in 1916 to provide education and training for disabled children and young adults. The college offered a range of courses and therapies to help students develop skills and independence, with a focus on preparing them for employment or further education. During her visit, Princess Elizabeth was given a tour of the college and met with students and staff. She was deeply moved by what she saw and expressed her admiration for the important work being done there. The Princess's visit brought much-needed attention and support to the college, and it went on to become a leading institution for the education and care of disabled people in the UK. The foundation stone-laying ceremony took place in the college's beautiful gardens, surrounded by trees and flowers. The Duchess of Portland presents the Princess with a casket as a symbolic gesture of appreciation for her support. The Princess looks intently at the casket, her expression one of serious concentration and determination. This photograph is a poignant reminder of a significant moment in the history of disability care and education in the UK, as well as a testament to the dedication and commitment of Princess Elizabeth to supporting those in need. The image captures a moment of historical importance, as well as the compassion and grace of a future monarch.
