EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of industry and skill-building within the walls of Caterham Asylum in Surrey, England, circa 1923. The Asylum, established in 1870 by the Metropolitan Asylums Board for London's sick poor with mental conditions such as epilepsy and severe learning difficulties, provided a sanctuary and care for those in need. In this image, we see an engaged carpentry class in session, with inmates intently focused on their tasks. The room is filled with the scent of fresh wood and the sound of hammers striking nails. The carpentry class, like its twin at Leavesden Asylum, was an essential part of the therapeutic regime at Caterham. It offered inmates a sense of purpose, accomplishment, and the practical skills necessary for independent living. The Metropolitan Asylums Board recognized the importance of providing opportunities for inmates to learn a trade, and carpentry was just one of many vocational classes offered. These classes not only provided valuable skills but also fostered a sense of community and camaraderie among the inmates. The photograph offers a poignant glimpse into the daily life of Caterham Asylum, a place where care, compassion, and the pursuit of skill-building were at the forefront. It serves as a reminder of the importance of providing opportunities for those with mental health challenges to learn, grow, and thrive.
