These galleries contain pictures sorted by subject matter taken from the thousands of photographs documenting UK social issues over the last five decades that are archived here.
Browse these galleries if you’re looking for ideas. If you have specific subjects or topics in mind then use the 'search' tab on the right (or in the menu at top right on a phone). The system will find similar forms of a word ('runs' also finds 'run', 'running' etc) and you can use OR and NOT (in capitals) to widen or narrow your search. Multiple words will find images with all those words and quotes will find an exact phrase.
There are lots of photos here and my keywording can be a bit flaky. There are many more that are not yet archived. If your search isn't finding what you're looking for then email or phone.
