Slowing down and taking notice | A photowalk with The Photobook Project
____________________________

This morning we had the joy of bringing together a beautiful bunch of Cornwall-based creatives to walk and document along one of the clay trails near St Austell.

Our project was initially developed with a local dementia-friendly walking group titled The Happy Wanderers in 2015, a group led by national charity . Together we walked in the footsteps of The Happy Wanderers, documenting as we went, and collected found objects to capture the essence of the place and shared experience.

Here are some of the images of the group’s book, intervowen with images from today. We can’t wait to see what photographs were taken and to share with you soon ✨

Huge thanks to for this opportunity 🙏

Over the summer, we’ve had the privilege of working with members of Activities 115 in Kingsbridge, documenting their experiences in nature around their town under themes of their chosen. From dogs and birds to bright colours and flowers to histories and stories, the group have had lots of fun spending time together in the sunshine!

We’ve also created beautiful cyanotypes, paintings, texture rubbings and a group poem:

“We have been meeting in Kingsbridge,
Taking photos together
Walking, collaging, painting and collecting
In the beautiful, sunny weather
We have seen dogs, flowers, caterpillars and birds,
Passing around the camera, taking it in turns
Looking up to the hanging baskets, and down at our feet
It’s amazing all the people that you meet
We’ve felt happy, excited and a sense of joy”

Huge thanks to .house.art.wellbeing for commissioning us and to and Jodie for all of your support. We can’t wait to see the photos that come from the films, and to share the photobooks with the group soon!

We had a wonderful time recently going along to the Budding Friends 10 year celebration! It was brilliant to see the group members and volunteers who we’d worked with in 2023-24, and we couldn’t believe the cake 😍

Congratulations on a fantastic achievement which supports so many affected by dementia in the community.
