EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at Bradstock Lockett Hospital Home for Girls in Southport, Lancashire, circa 1905. Established by the Waifs and Strays Society in 1902, this institution was dedicated to providing care and accommodation for crippled children. In this image, we see a group of young girls residing at the home, some of whom are holding crutches, suggesting their physical challenges. The caring and attentive staff members are seen in the background, tending to their needs and ensuring their well-being. The dormitory setting reflects the communal living arrangements of the time, where children lived together and formed bonds of friendship and support. The Waifs and Strays Society, a leading children's charity during the late Victorian and Edwardian eras, aimed to provide social welfare and care for children who were abandoned, orphaned, or in need. This photograph offers a poignant glimpse into the lives of these girls and the compassionate environment that the Society created for them.
