About the Club

(scroll down for location map and directions)

We meet every Tuesday evening between 8pm and 10pm from the beginning of January to the end of December with a Summer Break in July & August. We do have specific outdoor meets during the Summer break.

We also have Workshop meetings on other evenings where either photographic editing tutorials or live shoots are held.

The meetings are held at: Warkton Village Hall, Warkton Road, Warkton, Kettering, Northants NN16 9XJ.

The evenings begin at 7.45 for an 8pm start, but others do come earlier to chat with fellow members.

Free Parking and Disabled access are available at the Venue

Visitors and New Members are always welcome. We now have a larger Clubhouse, so membership numbers can now be increased.

Visitors: £2.50 entry (inc refreshments).

Full membership: £30 per year plus a reduced entrance fee. Our year starts from January through to the end of the year. Membership will be reduced for new members joining during the year.

We have a membership of friendly and helpful people that enjoy all aspects of film and digital photography.

Membership consists of men and women, young and old, with a variance of experience in photography, all willing to teach and learn from each other.

We also have members that do not necessarily wish to get involved with actually taking & showing photographs themselves, they join us on a social evening basis just to watch the slide shows and lectures and chat to new friends over a cup of tea or coffee.

We have regular slide & digital shows & lectures on a wide variety of interesting subjects, as well as club outings for Social events with a chance to photograph new subjects. All these events are shown within the 'Events Programme' pages.

To stimulate interest and participation, there are regular Club League Competitions where members can, only if they wish, enter their Slides, Digital Images or Prints to be judged by distinguished guests. There are also specific sponsored Trophies to be won throughout the year.

With the increase of interest in Digital photography, we also have Workshop and Practical evenings on subjects requested by the members.
