I’m 19 years of age living on Westminster’s Churchill Gardens Estate. I have been living there all my life.
I’m 19 years of age living on Westminster’s Churchill Gardens Estate. I have been living there all my life.
Growing up on the estate I am right now on the street trying to make some money to buy myself and my daughter some clothes, shoes and food. I had my daughter when I was 17 years old, this is when I realized how important my life is.
On the estate I have had so many encounters with the law enforcement, other gang members from other estates, and also grown adults who don’t seem to understand me and my friends.
I believe photography has helped me to have a better understanding and view on my life.
I see where I’m going wrong and where I’m going right but the one thing I need is extra support to be able to make the right decisions.
In future I want to be a full-time web designer and I can say that taking pictures has helped me focus much better. I now also know how to use a camera so when I am designing, I can also use my own pictures to create people websites.
Positive View has helped transform TN’s life and she is now working part-time as an apprentice designer with a Soho web Agency.
