Beggars: A glimpse into the lives of those forgotten by society. From the Beggars Opera Poster to the Industrial School in Buxton, Norfolk, these images shed light on a harsh reality. Two street children dressed as Krishna at Diwali festival time remind us of their resilience amidst adversity. In Ashford, Kent, an Industrial School provides hope and education for those in need. Labour Candidates strive to create a better future for beggars and marginalized communities alike. The Old Curiosity Shop's Nell and her grandfather symbolize the struggle against poverty that many face daily. Hogarth's depiction in his famous painting reminds us of their presence throughout history. Northumberland Village Homes for Girls offer shelter and support to young girls facing uncertain futures. The Industrial School for Girls in Maryhill, Glasgow empowers them through education and skills training. Harborne's Industrial School in Birmingham serves as a beacon of opportunity for underprivileged children seeking escape from their circumstances. King Oswalds Arm represents both charity and compassion towards beggars within our society. Amidst all this, noise pollution becomes another challenge faced by those living on the streets - an additional burden they must bear silently. Let us not turn a blind eye but instead acknowledge the struggles faced by these individuals who deserve dignity and respect like anyone else.
