EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Slum areas of Leicester. 18th October 1963" transports us back to a significant moment in history. Taken during the booming era of the 1960s, it offers a poignant glimpse into the harsh realities faced by impoverished communities in Leicester, Leicestershire. The image portrays a scene filled with rubble and dilapidated housing, revealing the stark contrast between the city's prosperous boom town reputation and its forgotten slums. Amidst this desolation, children can be seen playing amidst their challenging surroundings, showcasing resilience and an indomitable spirit even in times of hardship. The photograph is a powerful reminder of the social inequalities that plagued many cities during this period. It serves as a visual testament to the struggles endured by those living on society's margins while highlighting their ability to find joy amidst adversity. Through this evocative snapshot captured by Price from Memory Lane Prints, we are compelled to reflect upon our collective responsibility towards eradicating poverty and ensuring equal opportunities for all. It prompts us to question how far we have come since then and challenges us to continue striving for progress. As we gaze at this historical relic frozen in time, let it serve as both a tribute to those who persevered through difficult circumstances and an inspiration for future generations committed to building more inclusive societies where no one is left behind.
