A group of photographers and image-makers with different levels of expertise within the industry share their experiences and offer a glimpse into what it means to work as a creative, providing advice and guidance on possible routes into the industry. The audio is part of a panel discussion about the photography industry in support of the Aldridge Foundation in collaboration with The Trampery.

The Aldridge Foundation is a charity that aims to inspire and equip young people with the skills they need to take control of their futures, to create better academic, work and life pathways, experience greater social mobility and lead productive lives. The Trampery is a social enterprise that offers affordable desk spaces and studios for entrepreneurs in London.
