Ffotograff (digidol) / photograph (digital)

Acton, Karen

Collage of digitial photographs taken in the West Cross area between 23 March and 6 June 2020.

"My adult son, Mark, is deaf and has learning disabilities and has lived with me since the start of lock-down (he usually lives in a supported living home 150 miles away). We took photos on our daily walks and kept a diary. He has chosen his favourite photos, showing all the places we are able to walk from our house, to make a poster to show his care staff when he goes back. He's loved every minute of lock-down! After living with me for over 3 months Mark went back to Exeter end of June. I’ve not been able to see him since, except on Skype, but he will be back for Christmas!" (Karen from West Cross, Swansea).
