EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the image of Annie, an inmate of St. Olave's Home for Girls in Exeter, Devon, during the 1920s. The home, which was established in 1894 by the Waifs and Strays Society, was dedicated to providing shelter, education, and rehabilitation for destitute, neglected, or abandoned children. Annie's expression is one of quiet introspection, as she sits alone in a dimly lit room, her hands folded in her lap. Her clothing is simple and worn, reflecting the modest means of the institution. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of a girl living in a home for wayward or neglected children during the early 20th century. St. Olave's Home for Girls was one of many such institutions founded by the Waifs and Strays Society, which was dedicated to the rescue and rehabilitation of children in need. The society was established in 1881 and was instrumental in providing care and support to thousands of children across the United Kingdom. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the past and the challenges faced by children who found themselves in difficult circumstances. It also highlights the important work of organizations like the Waifs and Strays Society, which continue to provide vital support and services to vulnerable children and young people today.
