A print of a photograph of a bearded man lying on the output tray of a large printer. The photo is of a man named Charlie who was experiencing homelessness when I spoke to him in 2016. The photo is from the Outsiders Project documenting homelessness and substandard housing across Britain.

The Outsiders touring exhibition will be shown next at Blackpool Central Library from 14 April to 25 May 2025. This will be the pin-up version of the exhibition, essentially the same display which was shown inside the Houses of Parliament in January last year.

#fallfriday 
It's springtime but I still miss the streets at dawn
And in the morning walking your bridges home
As I sit and stare at all of England's souls
I tell you something
I wish I was in Edinburgh

Posters for 4 movies showing at the Odeon Cinema. Dirty Dancing, Sing, Valetines Day, and Resident Evil. 
A capital P with an American flag has been stuck on to read President Evil, with Trumps face stuck onto Milla Jovovic's body, she's riding a motorcycle shooting behind her..

Huge thank you to @crisis-uk.bsky.social for stepping in and handling the transportation of the Outsiders exhibition from venue to venue. It’s been a lifesaver as we only budgeted for three bookings but ended up with twelve. It’s a fabulous charity in every respect.
