EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of respite and care at the Derby Railway Servants Orphanage in circa 1908. The image shows a group of children, dressed in their best clothes, gathered in the sanatorium of the orphanage. The sanatorium was a place where the children could go to receive medical treatment and care when they were unwell. The Derby Railway Servants Orphanage was established in 1846 to provide shelter and education for the children of railway workers who had been killed or injured on the job. The orphanage was run by the Midland Railway Company and was one of the first institutions of its kind in the UK. The children in the photograph appear to be engaged in an activity, possibly a game or a lesson, under the watchful eye of a caregiver. Their expressions are filled with curiosity and joy, despite the hardships they may have faced in their young lives. The sanatorium, with its comfortable chairs and warm lighting, offers a brief reprieve from the challenges they faced on a daily basis. The history of the Derby Railway Servants Orphanage is a poignant reminder of the importance of social welfare and the role that institutions like this played in providing care and support for vulnerable children. The image serves as a testament to the resilience and spirit of the children who lived there, and the dedication of the caregivers who worked tirelessly to ensure their wellbeing.
