EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in the history of the National Children's Home (NCH) in Harpenden, showcasing the London Choir in action. The image reflects the rich musical tradition of the Home, which has its roots in the organization's previous location in Bethnal Green, East London. The London Choir, made up of current and former residents of the Home, is seen here in full swing, with their hands holding handbells and other instruments, accompanied by a drum. The children's faces are filled with concentration and joy as they sing in harmony, their voices blending together in a beautiful melody. The National Children's Home, founded in 1887, has a long and proud history of providing care and education to vulnerable children and young people. Over the years, it has evolved from an orphanage to a leading provider of social welfare services, with a focus on supporting children and families to overcome adversity and build better futures. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, reminding us of the Home's musical heritage and the important role it has played in the lives of countless children. The London Choir continues to thrive, providing a source of joy, self-expression, and community for the children at the Home today.
