The State of London

Celebrating 2,400 days since I first began posting photos and essays about London as ‘The State of London’ on Facebook (and later on X), and seeking donations to enable me to continue this unique photo-journalistic project, in which, as I describe it, I look at “London’s history, its social housing, its takeover, in recent decades, by predatory capitalism, the changing seasons, forgotten corners, rivers, hills and canals, parks and graveyards, seats of power, poverty and protests.”

My latest fundraiser, seeking $2500 (£2000) to support my work on Guantánamo (writing, campaigning, public appearances and media appearances) for the next three months, and also, if it’s of interest, to support my ongoing photo-journalism project ‘The State of London.’ I am an entirely reader-funded journalist and activist, and can only continue my work with your assistance.

Marking the 11th anniversary of ‘The State of London’, my ongoing photo-journalism project recording the changing face of the capital, with a fundraiser seeking your support for what is an entirely reader-funded project. Over the years, I have particularly focused on the blight of ‘regeneration’ programmes, whilst also celebrating London’s astonishing history of buildings, its nature and its history of protest, although the latter is now being challenged in an unprecedented manner.

The latest fundraiser for my unique, ongoing, reader-funded photo-journalism project ‘The State of London’, which I began in May 2012, and have been posting photos with detailed accompanying essays every day since May 2017 (and, since last summer, every two days) on ‘The State of London’ Facebook and Twitter pages.

The latest fundraiser for my ongoing photo-journalism project ‘The State of London’, which began ten and a half years ago when I started cycling throughout London’s 120 postcodes, and taking photos. Five and a half years ago, I started posting a daily photo and a detailed accompanying essay on Facebook, in what is an entirely reader-funded project, for which any donation you can make will be very welcome.

Marking 2,000 days since I first began posting a photo a day, plus an accompanying essay, on my Facebook page ‘The State of London’, taken from my archive of photos taken on daily bike rides throughout London’s 120 geographic postcodes, which I’ve been undertaking since May 2012.

The latest quarterly fundraiser for my ongoing photo-journalism project ‘The State of London’, five years and three months since I first began posting a photo a day, with an accompanying essay, on Facebook. This is an entirely reader-funded project, so if you can help out at all, it will be very greatly appreciated.

A fundraiser marking ten years of my photo-journalism project ‘The State of London’, and marking five years since I began posting a photo a day from the project, plus accompanying essays, on Facebook. This is an entirely reader-funded project, so any help you can provide will be very gratefully received.

The latest quarterly fundraiser for my ongoing, reader-supported photo-journalism project ‘The State of London’, for which I have no institutional backing whatsoever. Every day I cycle in London taking photos, choose a photo to post, research it and write about it, share it on social media, and interact with my supporters. It’s a labour of love, but if you can make a donation to support it that will be very much appreciated.

Celebrating 1,700 days since I first began posting photos of London, with accompanying essays, on ‘The State of London’ Facebook page, which I established in May 2017, on the fifth anniversary of when I first started cycling around London’s 120 postcodes taking photos, and which recently reached 5,000 followers.
