What is a photo-walk?
A photo-walk is a community-centred activity where children walk together with cameras in areas where they live. They document places they care about, develop narratives and ask questions to local community members. Asia Giuliani developed our photo-walk approach for children in 2018, inspired by her own photo-walks in East London. Click on the blog to read the incredible story of Peter Etchell from Bow, London.

Our Team
"A photo isn't just a photo, there's a story behind it. There is a history to a place and it's unique."
- Year 6 pupil, Belmont Junior School 2024
“It puts children at the heart of their community by helping them to look and listen. I believe that at our core everyone wants to be seen and understood. This project enables that to happen.”
- Better Bilingual, Bristol 2024
“We get to learn about people, what they wanted to do, how they changed as they grow up. We’ve learnt that nobody is the same. I prefer this learning.”
- Mariana, Stamford Hill Primary 2018
