- St_Francis'_Boy's_Home abstract "St Francis' Boy's Home in Shefford, Bedfordshire was the longest serving children's home in England. Founded in 1868, it played a vital role in providing care provision for children who could not live at home. The origins of this demand was facilitated by amendments in the Poor Laws, which allowed faith homes to be opened and for financial support to be provided from the state and local government/local parish. Soon after these changes in the Poor Laws, the Holy Roman Catholic Church opened a large number of institutions to provide care for the children of Catholic families. The home closed in 1974.The home was able to take up to 65 children between the ages of 5 to 16 years and although it was commonly referred to as an orphanage, actually in its later history was a home for children of the poor. Many of the children housed there came from broken homes and this is referred to in the Home Office inspection reports.In its latter years the home was run by the Northampton Diocese of the Roman Catholic Church under a registered charity called the Northampton Diocese Child Protection and Welfare Society. In 1977 this charity was renamed the St Francis' Children's Society, a Registered Charity No. 211670 with the Charity Commission of England and Wales, which still operates adoption and fostering services and is based in Milton Keynes in Buckinghamshire at Collis House, 48 Newport Road, Woolstone. The St Francis' Children's Society is a company limited by guarantee; Registration number 00392550. The St Francis' Children's Society no longer operates children's homes.".
