Photograph exhibition of Joanna Lumley’s Gurkha Justice Campaign opens at Mews of Mayfair

Documentary photographs of Joanna Lumley's successful Gurkha Justice Campaign go on show from today at Mews of Mayfair just off New Bond Street, London. The images form part of the first public solo exhibition for Joanna's son, Jamie Lumley, an up-and-coming photographer, and the official photographer for the Gurkha Justice Campaign.

Entitled Prayer Flags and Goal Posts, the exhibition consists of a series of photographs taken both in London, where Lumley lives, and in Nepal as part of the campaign. Publicly championed by Joanna Lumley – whose father Major James Lumley served in the 6th Gurkha Rifles during World War Two – the Gurkha Justice Campaign successfully obtained UK settlement rights for Gurkha ex-servicemen.
