Back in June we asked our members to take part in a photo competition to coincide with our 75th anniversary.
We suggested a number of themes that included Generations, Tea and cake, Almshouse pride, Happiness, Flora and Fauna and Through the Garden Gate.
And what a wonderful photography competition we have had! We were blown away by the stunning photographs sent in and it was an incredibly difficult decision to make for our judges to choose a winner and runner up! Our professional photographer, said âthey are all worthy winners!â
We agree. You are all winners, but sadly we could only offer prizes to the overall winner and runner up and these were announced at our 75th Garden Party.
Winner
Sheila Seymour, Clerk to the Trustees, Chubbs Almshouses won first prize for her photo on the theme âhappinessâ entitled âIn my shed, litho printingâ Congratulations Sheila!
Runner up
Susanne Munslow-Adair, Resident, Bennâs Walk Almshouses, Richmond â Theme âFlora and Faunaâ â âTall Rudbeckiasâ Congratulations Susanne!
Sheila will be receiving a fabulous garden tool set and ÂŁ50 Dobbies voucher and Susanne a pair of quality gardening gloves and ÂŁ20 Dobbies Voucher, courtesy of Dobbies Garden Centre.
Thank you to everyone who participated and watch out for another competition next year!
