Social photography exhibition used to campaign for a "Victims Pension" for those who were injuried during The Troubles in Northern Ireland. Many recieved little or no compensation for their injuries.
The subjects here were injured often through no fault of their own or in cases of mistaken identitiy by their attackers.
Physical versions of these photographs toured Northern Ireland in various public venues to bring attention to their campaign to recieve a "Victims Pension".
The images were also taken to and displayed inside the Houses of Parliament in London when the group were lobbying to MP's.
They took their case to court and won the right to recieve their "Victims Pension".
