EULOGY PROJECT - LEEDS' FIRST GENERATION JAMAICANS

Eulogy - celebrating the lives, journeys and heritage of Leeds’ first generation Jamaicans no longer with us.

Photographs of various Eulogy events and gatherings organised and produced by Susan Pitter. A couple of events were held at the Jamaica Society in Leeds and I also photographed a writing workshop run by Colin Grant. I met and photographed the founders and chair of the Jamaica Society, the oldest Windrush passenger - Alford Gardner and many local people who were willing to share their story. What a privilege it was to meet everyone and take their portrait.
