The theme of this year’s photo competition is the contribution of women in the world. Your entry could include a portrait picture of a mother, sister, or inspiring friend, or someone you look up to and admire.
We don’t just want portraits, though. Your entry could, for example, reflect one or more of the colours and values of the Suffragettes. These were purple which symbolised dignity, white for purity and green which symbolised hope.
You can interpret the theme in any way you like but remember, the photo should make an impact and tell a story.
How to enter
Categories are open to anyone living/working/studying in the area and are as follows:
- Primary (5-11 yrs)
