The Club conducts several competitions which are open to members only. The main competition, known as the monthly competition, is staged through seven separate monthly rounds from September to March and is intended to give every member the opportunity to assess and monitor his or her photographic proficiency by presenting work to a succession of independent judges.
Club Battles
Several battles are held during the season with neighbouring camera Clubs.
