Synopsis
When investigative journalist David Cohen was asked by his editor Geordie Greig to write a series of pieces on poverty in London, neither knew how dark a shadow they would uncover. The response from readers was unprecedented, and those articles led to a campaign which in turn led to a £ 7 million Dispossessed Fund. All proceeds go to the Dispossessed Fund.
