Using the theme of 'A Picture of Health' I was asked to deliver 3, 1 day workshops that will teach the young people, who were a mix of in and out patients, digital photography skills.
Starting off we discussed as a group what being healthy meant to each of the young people. Being in and out patients at the hospital many of them had spent the majority of their lives at BCH and as a result their answers were some what different to those of an already healthy child. They concentrated more on healthy eating and environments that make them feel good.
I decided that to make the images they wanted we needed to be outside, and so we went on different trips around the hospital grounds and local area. Always looking for images that could symbolize what being healthy meant to them.
The following gallery show examples of the images these young people made.
