Buckinghamshire Opened Princes Strays Waifs
EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures a moment of joy and tranquility at St Agatha's Girls Home in Princes Risborough, Buckinghamshire, during the 1920s. The Waifs and Strays Society, a charitable organization dedicated to the care and protection of children in need, opened the home at Queens Road in 1909. In this image, we see a group of young girls enjoying the beauty of their surroundings in the home's garden. They are dressed in simple yet elegant clothing, their faces radiant with happiness as they engage in playful activities. The lush greenery, blooming flowers, and clear blue sky create a serene backdrop, reflecting the nurturing and caring environment provided by St Agatha's. The home offered these girls a safe haven, a place to grow and thrive, away from the hardships and challenges they may have faced in their young lives. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the important role that charities like the Waifs and Strays Society played in the history of child welfare, and the positive impact they had on the lives of countless children.
