Adam Khan
A picture of my family unit, being a care leaver. Having experienced many disadvantages, I feel it’s important to understand that the heteronormative family unit isn’t representative of society today.
Me, Adam. I’m a non-binary, neurodivergent social activist and community leader.

Kathryn Mann
Me and my four siblings, one of my Cousins, my Parents and two sets of my Aunties and Uncles, all sat down the steps at our Auntie’s garden in Hollywood, Birmingham. My Mom was one of seven siblings and my Dad was an only child, who had five children together, so all my family memories are noisy, busy and loud, much like the Madness song ‘Our House’. This photo shows us during a gathering, I was only 3/4ish so can’t recall whether it was someone’s birthday, an anniversary or just a Sunday lunch, but we all have many memories like this. A family get together was always loud and fun and we’d end up rolling home long after dark, with a ‘doggy bag’ of leftover food, nodding off as the lights tunnels of Birmingham flew by.
