Kate Adcock, Director of Research and Innovation,
Muscular Dystrophy UK said
We congratulate Jordan on having achieved this
terrific degree. We also applaud the University
of Cumbria for supporting his studies throughout.
The images for his final project, taken despite
the extra effort needed during lockdown,
are wonderful. This is an outstanding example
of someone with a muscle wasting condition
making every day count. I’m excited to see how
his career progresses.
Jordan’s pictures are available for viewing at:

Dr Sarah Bonnar, programme leader for the BA
(Hons) Photography degree, said
Daytime Disability is a project that has brought
some emotions out of Jordan that are
normally hidden behind closed doors out of
embarrassment on having to rely on medical
equipment and support staff to retain
independence.
It has taken lots of confidence for him to show
some of these emotions for the first time in a project
that will be seen by many people, far and wide,
from the public, to friends and family, and to fellow
photographers.
