EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at Ida Hospital in Cookridge, near Leeds, which opened its doors to convalescent patients in 1888 following a generous bequest from John North. The single-storey ward buildings, designed with verandahs, were a forward-thinking innovation of the time, allowing patients to benefit from fresh air and sunshine in their recovery. In this image, taken in 1906, a uniformed nurse stands proudly among her patients, providing care and support. Two young children, both supported by crutches, are among those receiving treatment. The serene expression on the faces of the patients and the gentle touch of the nurse convey a sense of hope and healing in this nurturing environment. The Ida Hospital was a testament to the compassionate spirit of its founder, John North, who sought to provide a place of respite and rejuvenation for those in need. The hospital's picturesque setting amidst the rolling hills of Cookridge added to the therapeutic value of the institution, offering patients a chance to recover in the tranquility of nature. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a poignant reminder of the importance of compassionate care and the power of a supportive community in the healing process.
