EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at Her Majesty's Hospital, part of the Barnardos complex situated at Stepney Causeway in East London, around the year 1906. The image portrays a rooftop enclosure where young inmates are seen in the company of a caring nurse. Her Majesty's Hospital, opened in 1887, was an essential part of the Barnardos complex dedicated to providing welfare services for children in need. The rooftop enclosure offers a glimpse into the daily life of the children residing in the home. The young inmates appear to be enjoying the fresh air and sunshine, engaged in various activities under the watchful eye of the dedicated nurse. The enclosure, with its iron railings and green plants, offers a sense of safety and tranquility amidst the bustling cityscape of East London. The presence of the nurse underscores the importance of care and compassion in the lives of these children. The Barnardos Home, founded by Thomas Barnardo in 1867, was a pioneering organization that aimed to provide shelter, education, and training to orphaned, abandoned, and neglected children. The home's mission was to offer a sanctuary where children could grow and thrive, and this photograph encapsulates the essence of that mission. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the vital role that children's homes and welfare services play in providing care and support to young people in need. The image also highlights the importance of dedicated individuals, like the nurse in the photograph, who go above and beyond to make a difference in the lives of vulnerable children.
