CURRENT PROJECT
THIS GREEN AND PLEaSANT LAND
From 1976 to 1992, the UK government enforced a compulsory sheep dipping program to combat Sheep scab. Non-compliance risked prosecution, and farmers were forced to use government-approved dips. Yet, they remained unaware that these contained organophosphates (OP), leading to severe health consequences arising from prolonged exposure. This project delves into the narratives of two farmers whose exposure to these chemicals would change their lives forever. Despite years of advocating for government accountability, they've faced continual setbacks. Through their stories, this project seeks to shed light on a neglected chapter of history, advocating for recognition and justice for those affected.
