EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the George Garland Collection, we are transported back to the year 1944, where members of the Rogate Mutual Aid Society gather for a meeting in what appears to be the cozy ambiance of a local pub's public bar. The image exudes an air of camaraderie and community as individuals come together over pints of ale, engaging in lively conversations and sharing hearty laughter. The scene is reminiscent of simpler times when people sought solace and connection within their tight-knit communities. Amidst the backdrop adorned with vintage decor, including a prominent dartboard that hints at friendly competition, these society members find respite from their daily routines to discuss matters close to their hearts. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how social spaces like pubs have long played an integral role in fostering relationships and providing support networks beyond mere libations. It captures a moment frozen in time - one that encapsulates both unity and conviviality among its subjects. Preserved by West Sussex County Council's Record Office under Ref. No. N23833, this remarkable snapshot offers us a glimpse into history while evoking nostalgia for an era defined by face-to-face interactions and shared experiences. It stands as a testament to the enduring power of human connection found within these cherished gathering places – where friendships were forged over drinks poured with care, ideas exchanged freely, and memories made indelible.
