EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of Trinity College in Carmarthen during the 1950s. The image captures a momentous event known as the "Students Rag" where enthusiastic students took it upon themselves to halt all cars and vans entering or leaving town. Dressed in their finest fancy dress costumes, these spirited young individuals embarked on a noble mission - raising funds for spastic children. The date is February 14th, 1957, and as we peer into this snapshot of history, we witness an inspiring display of unity and compassion. With smiles on their faces and determination in their eyes, these university students invite drivers and passengers to contribute generously towards their rag week collection dedicated to supporting spastic children. This photograph not only showcases the exuberance of youth but also highlights the power of education in fostering empathy within society. Trinity College stands tall as a symbol of knowledge and enlightenment while its students demonstrate that learning extends beyond textbooks; it encompasses social responsibility too. As we delve into this nostalgic scene captured by Western Mail Archive, let us reflect on how acts of kindness can transcend time. This timeless image serves as a reminder that even amidst our own challenges today, there is always room for compassion and collective efforts towards creating positive change within our communities.
