EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, Sir Charles Wakefield, Alderman of the City of London (1859-1941), is seen making a state visit to the London Branch of the National Children's Homes (NCH) located on Bonner Road in Bethnal Green, East London. Accompanied by other distinguished City of London dignitaries, Sir Charles is shown offering his benevolence to the charitable institution, which at the time was dedicated to providing care and support for children in need. The year is not explicitly stated in the image, but based on the clothing and the presence of a footman holding an end of the Mayor's chain, it can be inferred that this was likely taken in the early 20th century. Sir Charles, dressed in formal attire and wearing a top hat, stands proudly among the crowd, with a smile on his face as he interacts with the children and NCH staff. The children, dressed in their Sunday best, appear excited and engaged, while the onlookers in the background show their appreciation with applause. The NCH, now known as Action for Children, has a rich history of over 150 years in providing vital services to children, young people, and their families. This photograph serves as a reminder of the important role that charitable institutions and benefactors like Sir Charles Wakefield played in supporting vulnerable communities and making a positive impact on the lives of countless children. The Union Jack flag flying high above the building adds a sense of national pride and unity, emphasizing the collective effort to improve the lives of those in need.
