EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at the Children's Training Centre located within the Caterham Imbeciles Asylum in Surrey, England. Established in 1870 by the Metropolitan Asylums Board for the care of London's sick poor with mental conditions such as epilepsy and severe learning difficulties, this institution was a twin facility to the one at Leavesden. The Children's Training Centre was designed to provide specialized education and care for the younger residents of the asylum. The children are seen here engaged in an outdoor activity, possibly a nature walk or a gardening project. Their expressions are a mix of concentration, curiosity, and joy, reflecting the importance of play and learning in their lives. The asylum's grounds were meticulously maintained, with gardens, greenhouses, and farmlands providing not only therapeutic value but also contributing to the self-sufficiency of the institution. The Children's Training Centre was staffed by dedicated teachers and caregivers who worked tirelessly to ensure the wellbeing and development of their charges. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, when the focus on care and rehabilitation for those with mental health challenges was a priority. It serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of compassion and understanding in the face of adversity.
