EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this poignant snapshot captured by the talented Doreen Spooner, we are transported back to a significant moment in history - November 1963. The photograph showcases Carisbrooke, a compassionate refuge nestled in the heart of Tulse Hill. This home served as a sanctuary for unmarried mothers during an era when societal norms often cast them aside. The image exudes warmth and tenderness as it portrays a mother cradling her newborn baby. It beautifully encapsulates the essence of Carisbrooke - a place where these brave women found solace and support amidst their unique circumstances. During the 1960s, being an unmarried mother was stigmatized; society's judgmental gaze fell heavily upon these courageous women who faced immense challenges alone. However, within the walls of Carisbrooke, they discovered acceptance and understanding from fellow mothers who shared similar journeys. Doreen Spooner's artistry allows us to witness not only the love between mother and child but also highlights the importance of spaces like Carisbrooke that provided essential care for both physical and emotional well-being. This evocative photograph serves as a reminder that compassion knows no bounds - regardless of one's marital status or societal expectations. It immortalizes an era when such homes played an invaluable role in empowering single mothers to embrace their newfound identities with strength and resilience.
