EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heartwarming print titled "Children petition to save milkman's house" we are transported back to June 1960 on Bedford Hill, Balham. The image captures the determined spirit of young Jennifer as she collects signatures in a bustling street market. Her mission? To save the beloved milkman's house from demolition. The community has rallied behind Jennifer, recognizing the significance of their friendly neighborhood milkman and his humble abode. One such supporter is Mrs. Robert Kelly, who can be seen signing the petition with a smile on her face. She fondly remembers how the milkman faithfully delivered fresh dairy products every morning and reciprocates his kindness by offering him a carrot. Jennifer extends this gesture of gratitude by giving Eva, another passerby, a carrot as well. It is evident that these small acts of appreciation have fostered strong bonds within this close-knit community. Standing beside Jennifer is Diane Cathercole, an instrumental figure in gathering signatures for the cause. Together, they embody unity and determination in preserving not only a physical structure but also cherished memories and connections formed over years of service. This snapshot encapsulates an era where people valued human connection and fought passionately for what they believed in – even if it meant saving something as seemingly ordinary as a milkman's house.
