Nene Park offer chance to win prizes for your photos of Peterborough as new 2021 competition launched

The Nene Park Trust ran a similar monthly competition throughout 2020 which culminated in a selection of the best photos being displayed at Ferry Meadows as part of an exhibition.

All photos must be taken within the Trust’s land, which stretches six miles along the valley of the river Nene to the west of Peterborough and includes Thorpe Meadows, Thorpe Wood, Orton Meadows and Ferry Meadows Country Park,

This year the monthly competitions will take on a new twist. Each month will have a different theme, encouraging budding and experienced photographers to think outside the box, search for seasonal nature and wildlife and visit the different areas of the park.

At the beginning of each month, a new theme will be announced and the previous month’s winner will be shared.

This year, each lucky winner will receive a £20 voucher to spend in the Visitor Centre & Gift Shop in Ferry Meadows as well as the accolade of their photograph being shared on our social media pages and featuring in the 2022 Nene Park fundraising calendar.

The proceeds raised from calendar sales will go straight back into maintaining and nurturing the wonderful greenspaces within Nene Park, for all the community to enjoy.

The theme for January is sunrises or sunsets. Photos can be taken in any area of Nene Park – Ferry Meadows, Orton Mere, Woodston Reach, Thorpe Meadows or the Rural Estate, but must feature a sunrise or sunset to be considered.

All entries should be sent to [email protected].
