EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at the Shaftesbury Home for Boys in Twickenham, early 1900s. Located in the heart of Fortescue House, the dining hall is filled with the sounds of laughter and conversation as the boys take their seats for a meal. The long, wooden tables are set with plates, silverware, and glasses, ready to serve the nourishing food that would sustain them during their stay. The Shaftesbury Home, founded in 1885, was a charitable institution that provided shelter, education, and care for orphaned, abandoned, or neglected boys. The home's mission was to offer a safe and supportive environment where these boys could grow into responsible and productive members of society. The dining hall was a central gathering place where they could come together, share meals, and build friendships. The boys in the photograph sit attentively, some chatting with their neighbors, while others appear deep in thought. Their expressions convey a sense of community and camaraderie, as they prepare to enjoy their meal together. The warm, inviting atmosphere of the dining hall is a testament to the care and compassion that defined the Shaftesbury Home. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, providing a poignant reminder of the importance of providing a safe and nurturing environment for children in need. The boys in the photograph may be long gone, but their memories live on, as do the values and mission of the Shaftesbury Home.
