|
| From September to May in Poynton Civic Hall with the exception of the first in the month when we are in Hazel Grove. Our programme consists of top class presentations, competitions, workshops and informal member’s evenings. |

|
| The enjoyment of taking photographs |
|
|
| As a hobby whether recording events, nature, landscapes or family snapshots we strive to obtain the best possible results. We encourage competition participation as a good way to learn, but everyone becomes involved at their own pace, and with a compact or DSLR camera, everyone can achieve good results. |
|
|
| Visiting and Joining |
|
|
| We count the friendship gained by a common interest as a requisite to club membership and welcome potential new members. If you are Interested, then come along to a Tuesday evening meeting; there is no obligation to join straight away. |

|
| Annual Exhibition |
|
|
| This is the main event in the Society’s calendar and is held every year during February. It is a showcase of our members’ work with 150 prints and projected images on display. The exhibition is held over 3 days and over 30 clubs compete for coveted trophies. These competitions are known as the North Cheshire Challenges, details of which can be found on their dedicated website with its own blog. |

|
| Competitions |
|
|
| We have about 8 internal competitions each season, typically with an external judge, with members competing to become Clubworker of the year. In addition, there are a number of Interclub competitions and other external ones which are either entered as a club or individually. |
