Cheam Lane Opened Sandy Staff Strays Waifs 1921
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at St. Mary's Children's Home for Girls in Cheam, Surrey, circa 1921. The Waifs and Strays Society, a charitable organization dedicated to the care and protection of children in need, opened the home on Sandy Lane in 1914. In this image, we see the joy and innocence of the young girls as they gather outside the home, dressed in their best Sunday attire, surrounded by the nurturing presence of their dedicated caregivers. The staff members, dressed in their professional uniforms, smile warmly at the children, creating an atmosphere of love, support, and community. The lush greenery and sunlit day add to the sense of tranquility and hope, reflecting the transformative power of the home in providing a safe and loving environment for these children. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the important role that charities and caregivers play in shaping the lives of vulnerable children and offering them a brighter future.
