We produced images, collaborating together as a young community project, evolving and mentoring our young people to develop their skills and giving them opportunities.

Without the support of all of our sponsors on this project, this would not have been possible. Thank you, Olympus, RANKIN studios, BGC CHARITY DAY, Debbi Clark Photographer and Sam Sure.
