Five years ago, Donna was engaged, a mother to a beautiful boy and at university. This all changed when Donna was prescribed medication for a work-related injury and in turn being sharply cut off resulted in her purchasing illegal prescriptions. Spending hundreds of pounds every week Donna resorted to shoplifting to fund her addiction. Currently in recovery Donna volunteers and actively campaigns to raise awareness on prescribed medication addiction. Donna participated in my MA Photography project, 'Return, O Backsliding Children', September 2022, which can be seen on my website
