EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to the heartwarming scene of a Donkey retirement home in Selsey, Sussex. Dated 26th June 1964, it showcases the remarkable dedication and compassion of John Lockwood towards these gentle creatures. With his own money, he selflessly cares for an astonishing number of 50 retired, old or sick donkeys. The image captures the serene ambiance of this haven for our four-legged friends. The lush green fields serve as a picturesque backdrop while the donkeys roam freely, basking in their well-deserved retirement. Each animal carries its own unique story etched on its weathered face - tales of hard work and service that have now given way to peaceful days spent under John's watchful eye. In an era where animal welfare was not always prioritized, this snapshot represents a shining example of one man's unwavering commitment to providing love and care for these magnificent creatures. It serves as a reminder that kindness knows no bounds when it comes to safeguarding the health and happiness of animals. This photograph is not just about donkeys; it symbolizes hope and empathy during a time when such virtues were often overshadowed by other concerns. It stands as a testament to the power individuals possess in making positive change within their communities – even if it means dipping into their own pockets. As we gaze upon this poignant image captured decades ago, let us be inspired by John Lockwood's extraordinary act of compassion towards these beautiful beings
