EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the Mary Evans Picture Library, taken in 1953, we witness the annual carnival procession in Walton-on-the-Naze, Essex, where the Girls Life Brigade proudly marches down Albion Road in their vibrant uniforms and fancy dress. The Girls Life Brigade, a youth organization for girls, is seen here in high spirits as they enjoy the festivities of the carnival, their smiling faces adorned with joy and excitement. The young brigade members, dressed in their distinctive uniforms, are a sight to behold as they proudly carry placards and wave to the cheering crowds. The uniforms, with their smart, navy blue blouses, white skirts, and red scarves, add a sense of unity and pride to the group. Some girls have also donned additional costumes, adding a touch of whimsy and fun to the occasion. The procession makes its way down the bustling street, with spectators lining the sides, eager to catch a glimpse of the marching brigade. The atmosphere is jovial and lively, with the sound of laughter and chatter filling the air. In the background, a grand hotel stands tall, adding a sense of elegance and sophistication to the scene. This photograph is a wonderful snapshot of life in the 1950s, a time when community spirit and enjoyment were at the forefront of events such as the Walton-on-the-Naze carnival. The Girls Life Brigade's annual march in the procession was a cherished tradition, and this photograph beautifully captures the essence of the occasion.
