EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of hard work and camaraderie at the Waifs and Strays Society Home in Lincoln, England, in 1896. The Waifs and Strays Society was a leading children's charity that provided care and support for orphaned, abandoned, and neglected children. In this image, a group of boys are seen diligently chopping firewood, likely to be used for heating the home during the colder months. Their determined expressions and focused postures convey a sense of purpose and resilience, as they work together to ensure the comfort and wellbeing of their community. The Waifs and Strays Society was established in 1881 and quickly grew to become one of the most prominent children's charities in the UK. Its homes, including the one in Lincoln, offered a safe and nurturing environment for thousands of children in need. The Society's services extended beyond just providing shelter and food, as they also offered education, vocational training, and emotional support. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the important role that charities like the Waifs and Strays Society played in providing essential care and services to vulnerable children during a time when state welfare systems were still in their infancy. The boys in the image, despite their challenging circumstances, demonstrate the strength and determination that can be found in even the most difficult situations.
