| In Autumn 2006 I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis for which I receive drug treatment, as a result I am unable to undertake full-time work. I returned to post-graduate study and research in September 2007. I recently set up, and continue to work on a project that aims to challenge the stigma of mental illness/distress via the medium of photography. I am currently working on a number of photographic projects including one that has resulted in permanent artwork exhibited in the new maternity block University Hospital North Staffs in Stoke-on-Trent.
