Ben and the Mental Wealth project
Ben, and eight other people with enduring mental health needs supported by United Response, took part in Mental Wealth.
Together, they produced a compelling body of photographic work.
He says:
"This picture expresses a sense of being serene and moving in a direction - being future orientated, digesting the past and looking forward.
"If you are getting over mental health problems support is vital but we need the freedom to define the future for ourselves - to define our dreams and ambitions." Ben
Photographer Ben - like an estimated 1 in 4 adults in the UK - has a mental health need.
