What do we offer?
The club holds a range of events from weekly meetings to location outings.
- Club evenings
- Practical evenings
- Photo editing evenings
- Social events
- Competitions with other clubs
We meet most Monday evenings throughout the year from September to May. Evening sessions run from 7.30pm to around 9.30pm with doors open from just after 7pm. During early summer we meet at outdoor locations in the area to get down to some serious picture taking! If you would like to come along to see what we do, please feel free to do so without obligation. If you have any questions, don’t be afraid to ask - members will be happy to help you. And don’t be put off by some of the images you will see - the photographers in this club have a range of abilities and even the good ones started with less experience than they have now!

The calendar Search and Date tool displays differently according to window layout and screen size. If you see a magnifying glass icon, click on the icon to reveal the Search and Date boxes.
Note that the Search tool only looks at event titles, so it is not very helpful.
Past events are visible for six months before today.
The calendar tool is provided by Tockify - there is no need to use the calendar by TOCKIFY link button.
