Alessandro Raho is included in ‘Everyday Heroes’, an outdoor exhibition taking place across Southbank Centre that celebrates the contributions that key workers and frontline staff have made during the pandemic.
It features more than 40 portraits of some of the entirely ordinary but also utterly remarkable people – among them health workers, bus drivers, faith workers and shop assistants – who have helped to keep this country going during the crisis, often working in extremely challenging circumstances and putting their own personal safety at risk.
