To mark the launch of ActForEaling, in 2021 we are opened of our first photography competition. We’re looking for pictures with a local interest – showing the beauty of this ‘Queen of the Suburbs’ and we hope to see lots of inspirational entries showing positive climate action and restoration of nature in the borough .
In partnership with ActForEaling, Northfields Camera Club is delighted to be running the competition. The distinguished panel of judges, including comedian and presenter Mel Giedroyc, will be selecting the winners.
“I am thrilled to find out about all the different ways local residents are responding to climate action in the borough. I look forward to discovering all sorts of green gems I never knew existed in Ealing.” said Mel Giedroyc.
The best photos will be in local exhibitions around Ealing, in an online gallery and on the ActForEaling website.
The three categories for the photos are:
- Green Shoots- young people acting for a greener future
- Sustainable Generations- passing sustainability tips between generations
- Climate in the Community- people powered community climate action
This competition is open to all ages. We are also encouraging Ealing’s young photographers to get involved by submitting their entries for the youth class (under 16) of these categories.
Take a look at the various events taking place in Ealing during the Great Big Green Week that provide numerous opportunities to photograph climate positive people!
