Survival Programmes comprises photographs (all black and white), interview transcripts, drafts and other materials relating to the book Survival Programmes by the Exit Photography Group (Nicholas Battye/Chris Steele-Perkins/Paul Trevor).

'Survival Programmes' was a Gulbenkian funded project to document inner city environments and lives in the later 1970s. The original photographs were used in a travelling exhibition, and are kept by the Side Gallery, Newcastle upon Tyne. A book based on the project, Survival Programmes: in Britain's Inner Cities by the Exit Photography Group (Nicholas Battye/Chris Steele-Perkins/Paul Trevor) was published in 1982.
