I am interested by the idea that we all have the power to generate hope in others by offering 'acts of kindness'. I have documented, photographically, around 40 stories about people who help others, covering as wide a range of activities as possible (eg social care, education, environment, sport, art, business, etc). The result is a collection of images showing the warmth and generosity of the people of Bradford. It also shows how using our passion and talents to benefit others can simultaneously benefit ourselves. The photographs are a reminder that helping others can maintain our dignity and self respect, even in these difficult economic times. It is a powerful argument against protectionism.
