EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant photograph, an old emigrant from the National Children's Home (NCH) in England stands proudly in front of the house he now owns in Canada. The National Children's Home, also known as "Wandsworth Home" or "Wandsworth Workhouse," was an orphanage and children's charity in England that provided care and education for thousands of children between 1854 and 1981. Many of these children were orphans, abandoned, or in need of a better life. In an effort to provide them with a fresh start, the NCH facilitated emigration to Canada, where they could build new lives and contribute to their adopted country. This man, once a child in need of care, is now a successful homeowner, a testament to the transformative power of the NCH and the opportunities that Canada offered. The National Children's Home was founded in 1854 by the Reverend William Henry Brown, with the goal of providing a better future for children in need. Over the years, the organization grew, and by the late 1800s, it was one of the largest children's charities in the world. The children were given education, training, and the opportunity to emigrate to Canada, where they could start a new life. This photograph captures a moment of triumph and gratitude, as this man reflects on the journey that began at the National Children's Home and led him to this moment of homeownership in Canada. The historical significance of this image lies in the story it tells of the impact of care, education, and opportunity on the lives of children in need.
