Dunforth Children’s Home Newhaven

Looking for any photos and info of Dunforth Children’s Home circa 1946-1953 . My dad was taken into their care there and I’m doing research for his 80th birthday.
Hello,
My Grandma attended Victoria primary during the same time period as your dad. Her Name is Hazel Ann Watt (she has a brother Fergus and sisters Bev and Shelagh). My grandma had a best friend who attened her school but lived in Dunforth home. Her name is Louise and she had a brother (maybe a year or two younger) called Robert. Does your dad remember my grandma or her friends? Im desperately looking for Louise for her :) I hope you find what you are looking for. I found a little bit of info about the home on a facebook page called Spirit of Leithers - and theres a couple of photos. I hope I hear from you, Kind regards Sara-Jade
