Here at Photofold Camera Club, we are constantly engaging in events and club outings with various different clubs within the photography community.

Throughout the numerous COVID-19 lock-downs, we were still actively engaging with our members through holding Zoom presentation evenings as well as competitions.

As we begin to get back to normality, we hope to get back to competing in local as well as national events once again.

Schools Photographic Competition 2025

Every year Photofold Camera Club organises a schools photographic competition for 7 – 11 year olds. Twenty-one new cameras were purchased in 2018 for the schools to use. This was made possible due to a gratefully received donation from the Billericay Round Table.

This years themed competition for the schools was “Looking Up, Looking Down. Four schools entered the competition: Brightside Juniors, Buttsbury Primary, Quilters Juniors and St Peter’s Catholic Primary School.

The exhibition is running from the 1st September to the 15th in Billericay Library. The presentation of prizes was on Saturday 6th September. Jim Devlin Chair of Billericay Town Council gave out the prizes whilst Chris Thurman OBE our judge said a few words why he chose each winning entry
