Entries are now open for our first photo competition celebrating Sussex’s vibrant voluntary sector of inspirational charities and community groups.
In what continues to be a challenging and uncertain time for many Sussex communities, we have seen how our local charities and community groups have yet again stepped up, taken action and continued to support our most vulnerable. This Sussex Day (Sunday 16 June), we want to continue to celebrate the amazing people, activities and places that are at the heart of our community with our first photo competition.
Photo entries are to be made under each of our four funding priorities, which you can find out more about here. There will be one winner per funding priority and each will receive a £150 donation to their charity or community group.
Our funding priorities are:
The final decision will be made by our judging panel. The winning photos will be promoted to celebrate Sussex Day on Sunday 16 June 2024. The four winners will receive a donation to support the work of their community group and we aim to feature as many photos as possible in the next year throughout our communications, including printed materials such as our Annual Report.
The deadline for submission is 5pm on Friday 24 May 2024.
If you are a local charity or community group and have received funding from the Foundation in the last three years, we would love to receive images showing examples of your inspirational work.
