| The Society is open to any HASSRA member and we look forward to seeing new faces coming along and joining in. |
| |
| We meet each Tuesday evening at 7:30pm in the Coffee Lounge (September - April) at the Department for Work and Pensions, Norcross, Norcross Lane, Thornton Cleveleys. |
| |
| Members must announce themselves to the security gate house and sign in on entry, they must also sign out when leaving. All members bringing a vehicle on site must register them with the secretary beforehand. |
| |
| Although we have a good number of keen competitive workers in our ranks, we pride ourselves first and foremost on being a friendly club whose priority is enjoying our photography. |
| |
| The aim of the Society is to help people to enjoy and learn about photography. Throughout the season we run a wide ranging programme of activities. |
| |
| Our activities cover such things as: |
| |
| Photographic shows |
| Travelogues by guest speakers |
| Presentations on photography - tuition sessions |
| Members’ nights - club competitions – and social events. |
| |
| See the 2011-12 syllabus for a list of last seasons events |
| |
| The Society has embraced the exciting new world of Digital Photography with enthusiasm but it still supports and encourages the more traditional arts of film-based photography. You don’t have to be an “expert” photographer to join in. We welcome complete novices and experts alike. The emphasis is on getting pleasure – and fun – out of photography. |
| |
| Access to the site is via the main entrance to this site on Norcross Lane. |
| The Society meets on a government office site and we must adhere to security directives. |
| |
| Membership is open to all but those who do join must be members of HASSRA, (the Health and Social Security Recreational Association). |
| |
| We are longstanding members and supporters of the Joint Fylde Photographic Societies and the Lancashire & Cheshire Photographic Union, and take part fully in their activities. |
