Pipped Off and Universally Discredited

#finalyear #britain #disability #documentary #humanitarian #photography #universalcredit #welfare

An ongoing work inspired by my Dad’s troubling experience as a man with a long term disability, trying to get help from an ever changing welfare system that often causes much more stress and misery than benefit to the people that it is designed to help. This lead to me wanting to learn more about the stories of other people who are also affected by these government policies, in hope that sharing them will bring their unnecessary suffering into the public eye where things can be changed.

My father, Mark, sat in his living-room in Pelsall..

Deborah, sat in her living room in Walsall.

Deborah's husband, Pete and their dog, Pippin.
