EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at Barnardos Ever Open Door, a children's home in Hull, Yorkshire, circa 1906. The image shows a group of young children, dressed in simple clothing, gathered around a table in the home's common area. The expression on their faces conveys a range of emotions, from curiosity and playfulness to sadness and apprehension. The Ever Open Door was a vital social welfare service that provided shelter, care, and support to orphaned, abandoned, or neglected children in need. Barnardos, a leading children's charity founded by Thomas Barnardo in 1867, operated numerous homes and institutions across the UK to provide a safe and nurturing environment for children in crisis. The Ever Open Door in Hull was just one of many such homes that opened its doors to children in need, offering them a temporary respite from the harsh realities of their lives. The children in this photograph were likely taken in during a single day at the home. They may have come from various backgrounds and circumstances, but they were all united by their need for care and protection. The Ever Open Door provided them with essential services, including education, medical care, and emotional support, as well as training and skills to help them build a better future. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the vital role that children's homes and welfare services played in providing care and support to vulnerable children in the past. It also highlights the ongoing need for such services to continue to make a positive difference in the lives of children and young people today.
