On top of this, on 22nd January 2022, we will be hosting an in-person celebration of the winners with our partners.

Refreshments will be provided and our steering group are looking forward to meeting the fantastic entrants that have made our photography competition such a success! Please note that all government Covid guidance will be followed. More details to come.

In the meantime, have a look at what the winners have won for their amazing efforts:

Captions include (from top left corner clockwise) “Read the signs”, “Enterprising young lady”, “Cleaner Air in Ealing – No idling”, “What about the children?”, “Ealing’s Bonfire of Active Travel” and (bottom left corner) “Cycling ABC Checks”.

Our Photography competion will be back next year!
