Carshalton College students from the Creative Industries department have contributed to the creation of The Volunteering In Focus Photo Book produced by The Volunteer Centre, Sutton.

The Volunteering In Focus Photo Book showcases the incredible work that volunteers do in the London Borough of Sutton. The photo book highlights a fantastic year that has included significant national events and local festivals. With a mixture of locality snaps, people, teams and arty creations it is a bright and authentic picture of Sutton’s residents, community, and culture.

The book is currently being showcased at the Europa Gallery at Sutton Library and will be throughout December as part of the wider Summer Festival Exhibition.

Sabina Uzunovic, Melissa Hall & Marvin Kakooza, all Interactive Media students and tutor Christine Brown assisted in the production of the book. The students edited and cropped photos while learning new techniques for page layout.

Art students, Andrew Ellis, Sergey Galevskis & Beneriza Javate and tutor Miriana Dambrosio all provided artwork and photography that has been used in the book.

“It was great to have the Carshalton College media students and instructors give their skills and their time to create a book focused on community and volunteering! We are looking forward to having the students do many more volunteer projects with local community organisations” – Romanda Simpson, BeConnected The Volunteer Centre Sutton is the largest in the country, delivering a broad portfolio of services to enhance community well-being through voluntary action, encouraging and supporting everybody who lives in or visits the London Borough of Sutton to volunteer with a positive outcome.
