Weekly Meetings: Our club, based in West Berkshire, England, is a member of the Southern Photographic Federation. The club meets every Thursday evening, 7:30pm to 10:00pm, at Shaw Social Club, Almond Avenue, Newbury, Berks., RG14 1LU (see map).

During our main winter season, between September and the following June, we have presentations by invited speakers who describe their personal areas of photographic expertise. The club also holds photographic competitions. During our summer season, from June to September, the meetings are less formal and tend to focus on topical areas of photography and photographic techniques.

Prospective new members who live in the Newbury area, both beginners and experienced photographers, are always welcome to come along to see what the club is all about. After up to three initial visits prospective members are invited to join the club.

Workshops: In addition to the weekly meetings, the club runs photographic workshops at Shaw Social Club, at 7:30pm on the third Tuesday of most months. These practical workshops, aimed primarily at those club members who are just starting out in photography, cover a wide range of photographic topics, including training in Adobe Photoshop. Details of future workshop will be announced to members at the weekly Thursday meetings.

Email Discussion Group: The club runs a Yahoo group for email communication between club members. New club members can request to be added to the group  by sending an email to the webmaster, Ian Trusson LRPS.
