EDITOR’S LETTER
I
It is with great pleasure to present the third issue of Wondering about West London? a news-based zine run by the Photojournalism Hub (photojournalismhub.org) and kindly supported by the resident-led partnership W12Together (w12together.org). Wondering about West London? is produced by young people living in west London and covers local news and stories. The third issue brings us a great array of photo stories from the tender visual narrative on an elderly couple, street photography and a collective photo documentary on Christmas under the threat of Covid-19. The zine is accompanied by the wonderful illustrations of two young participants of the project. Wondering about West London? Issue 3 brings amazing creative, resourceful and touching content from a youth perspective. The work produced in and around west London is a meaningful impression of our times through the young eyes of talented local budding journalists and photographers. I am immensely proud for this achievement and I would like to renew my gratitude to W12together for supporting this worthwhile project
