EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, the Duchess of York, later known as Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, performs the symbolic act of lighting lamps at the Toc H League of Helpers Festival and Lamplighting Ceremonial held at the prestigious Royal Albert Hall in London on October 27, 1934. The Duchess, who was the patron of this international Christian movement, lit the lamps of 28 new branches, including Auckland, Bulawayo, and Vancouver. The name Toc H is derived from Talbot House, with Toc representing the letter T in the signals spelling alphabet used by the British Army during World War I. The Toc H League of Helpers was a charitable organization dedicated to providing aid and assistance to those in need, both in the UK and abroad. The lamplighting ceremony was a significant event in the organization's history, symbolizing the light of hope and guidance that Toc H aimed to bring to communities around the world. The Duchess's regal presence and the grandeur of the Royal Albert Hall add an air of elegance and importance to this humanitarian endeavor. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the Duchess's charitable work and the impact of the Toc H League of Helpers during a time when community support and solidarity were crucial.
