EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at the National Children's Home in Sheringham, Norfolk, established in 1916. Located at Westcroft, Hooks Hill Road, the home was a sanctuary for children in need, providing them with a safe and nurturing environment during a time when poverty and hardship were prevalent. The children and dedicated staff stand proudly in front of the home's gate, exuding a sense of hope and resilience. The National Children's Home at Sheringham was not a workhouse, but rather a charitable institution that offered a alternative to the often harsh and inhumane conditions of the traditional workhouses of the time. The home's historical significance lies in its commitment to providing care and support to vulnerable children, making a positive difference in their lives. The image transports us back to a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the past and reminding us of the important role that charities, such as the National Children's Home, have played in providing essential services and support to those in need. The home's imposing gates, framing the children and staff, serve as a poignant reminder of the protective barrier that the home provided for its residents, shielding them from the challenges of the outside world. This photograph is a testament to the enduring power of community and compassion, and serves as a reminder of the importance of continuing to support charitable organizations that make a difference in the lives of children and families in need.
