Health Inequalities Photojurnalism Exhibition
Published: 27 September 2023
An exhibition with images from members of Chance2Change, a community peer support in Drumchapel to convey health inequalities using their own lived experience of the themes such as homelessness, neglect, and substance misuse. Available to view until December 1st.
In 2023, Chance2Change were commissioned by the Queens Nursing Institute Scotland (QNIS) to undertake photojournalism work exploring health inequalities in partnership with Inclusive Images and Clydesider. The topics included homelessness, grief, trauma, early deprivation and neglect, addiction, poverty, and physical ill health. These topics were all part of a professional development programme for community nurses and midwives and the project was funded by the Burdett Trust for Nursing.
The School of Health and Wellbeing at The University of Glasgow is pleased to host this thought-provoking exhibition in Byres Community Hub during the Festival alongside a collaborative needle felting piece ‘Drumchapel in the Spring’ showing colour, life and hopes and prayers for the future which Chance2Change members were also involved in as part of a Drumchapel LIFE project with Lin-Pin Craft. C2C will also be screening their films ‘The Wee Club That Changed Our Lives’ and ‘Chance2Change Does Digital ‘on Thursday 19th October in Clarice Pears as part of the Scottish Mental Health Arts Festival programme.
