EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the interior of Gordon Ward at Her Majesty's Hospital in Stepney, East London, which opened in 1887 as part of the Barnardos complex. The image, dating back to circa 1906, offers a glimpse into the daily life of this children's home and care facility. Nurses are seen attending to patients with great care and compassion. Among them is a young boy using crutches, who is likely receiving medical attention or rehabilitation. During this era, Her Majesty's Hospital and Barnardos Home played a crucial role in providing essential services to vulnerable children and families in need. The institution offered shelter, education, and medical care to orphans, abandoned children, and those in difficult circumstances. The interior of Gordon Ward reflects the dedication and commitment of the staff in creating a nurturing and supportive environment. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the historical importance of children's homes and the vital role they play in the social welfare system.
