Jake Morris-Campbell: Between The Salt And The Ash

About the show

After inheriting the miner's safety lamp that belonged to his great-grandfather, Jake Morris-Campbell sets out on a pilgrimage across his homeland. Travelling from the Holy Island of Lindisfarne to Durham Cathedral, he asks what new ways might be made through the old north.

Jake's journey along the 'Camino of the North' sees him explore the shifting nature of individual and regional identity across 1300 years of social change. Rejecting the damaging trope of 'left behind' communities, Jake uncovers neglected seams of culture and history, while offering a heartfelt celebration of the place he calls hyem.
