We shared free tea and cake and a short talk about Nationhood: Memory and Hope at Impressions Gallery’s free regular event for the over-60s.

Nationhood: Memory and Hope was an exhibition powerful and poignant photography celebrating the diversity of the UK today. A love letter to all that is good in England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales, it offered a wealth of insights on how we each try and shape both our identities and communities to make the world a better place.

New work from acclaimed Ethiopian artist Aïda Muluneh and seven UK early career photographers featured in this major exhibition, curated by Anne McNeill, Director and Curator of Impressions Gallery.

The exhibition traveled throughout 2025 to Belfast Exposed, Ffotogallery in Cardiff, and Street Level Photoworks in Glasgow – making this the first ever UK City of Culture project to take place in all four nations of the UK.
