The Epping Forest District Museum is currently collecting photographs of
daily life at Great Stony School, a residential school for children with
learning difficulties (1939-1994). We are planning to create an
exhibition with this material. 

Lots of photographs have come forward, mainly from and made by
ex-staff, who are of course happy for their pictures to be used in a
display. However, it will be impossible to track down the children
pictured to ask for their permission. We are particularly concerned
about this as some children might not want to be identified as ex-pupils
of the school, or would not like to see themselves back either in an
exhibition or on related publicity. 

We would appreciate advice on any restrictions we should be aware of,
or if anyone is aware of or has been involved in other exhibitions
dealing with similarly sensitive subjects.

Many thanks.
