Raissa Page (1932-2011) was an important figure in British social
care and a renowned documentary photographer whose work represented marginalised groups during times of great social change in the late 1970s and 1980s. But how and why did a social worker and largely self-taught photographer come to be taking such extraordinary images in the UK and elsewhere in the late 1970s and 1980s? Using The Raissa Page collection in the Richard Burton Archives at Swansea University, and this book attempts to answer these questions, and illustrated the talents and humanity of an underrated yet highly skilled photographer who captured the lives of the working class, people with disabilities and the young at work, at leisure and in hospital or care in the UK and overseas. Lavishly illustrated with 140 illustrations, Raissa Page photographed the marginalised, and allowed them centre stage. This book allows Page's legacy to continue.
