1. Title: A Haven of Hope: The RAOB Orphanage in Southborough, Kent The RAOB Orphanage in Southborough, Kent, is a historic children's home that opened its doors in 1924. Established by the Royal Antediluvian Order of Buffaloes, this institution has been providing social care and welfare to children in need for nearly a century.

The image shows a group of children, dressed in their Sunday best, gathered around a table, engaged in an activity. Their smiling faces radiate joy and contentment, reflecting the positive impact of the Orphanage on their lives. The Royal Antediluvian Order of Buffaloes, a fraternal organization, took it upon themselves to establish this children's home as part of their commitment to community service and child welfare. The Orphanage in Southborough was one of many such initiatives undertaken by the Order across the United Kingdom. The Orphanage's mission was to provide a safe and loving home for children who had been orphaned, abandoned, or otherwise in need of care.
