“Working with PhotoVoice has been an absolute pleasure over the last year. Our aim was to tell the stories of some of our beneficiaries through their eyes, rather than telling the stories for them, as so often happens. The results have been fantastic, both from our point of view in London and for the participants themselves.”

“Normally, we take the stories of beneficiaries and re-tell their stories to other stakeholders. In this way we speak on behalf of them but today, with the images they had taken – it felt as though they were directly speaking to us and the public.”

“I wanted to share a call I had from an adoptive mum which was very positive about the PhotoVoice project. On returning home her daughter had talked at length about her feelings about adoption and contact with birth family and she had used images from around the home (the fire place, ornaments, paintings) to help her mum understand how she felt – her mum was very pleased and impressed. Many thanks.”

“The project as a whole was invaluable, in terms of giving the deafblind people, choice, control, to build confidence and a sense of worth.”
