EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by Kirby, we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of Reading University's Rag Week in 1926. A group of female students, brimming with youthful energy and enthusiasm, take center stage as they participate in a charitable event to support the Berkshire Hospital. Dressed in an array of fashionable outfits from the era, these young women exude both elegance and determination. Their faces radiate excitement as they engage in various activities aimed at raising funds for a noble cause. From selling homemade crafts to organizing entertaining games, their commitment towards helping others is palpable. The image beautifully encapsulates the spirit of camaraderie among these university students as they come together for a common purpose. It serves as a testament to their dedication not only towards their education but also towards making a positive impact on society. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot frozen in time, it reminds us of the importance of community engagement and philanthropy within educational institutions. The legacy left behind by these inspiring individuals continues to resonate even today, reminding us that acts of kindness have no boundaries when it comes to lending a helping hand. Kirby's skillful composition allows us to witness this remarkable moment from nearly a century ago – an enduring reminder that compassion transcends time and generations.
