Introduction

The Society’s remit is to promote the art and science of photography with the belief that no one is too young or too old to learn and enjoy image making and appreciation.

Photography, like most things, is ever changing and modern technologies are taking it to new extremes which were once not thought possible. The Royal Photographic Society aims to keep up with these changes by providing information, training and advice for all those with a keen interest in photography from the amateur enthusiast to the seasoned professional.

The Society will continue its overall aim to promote high standards in photography in a broad and accessible way. It now has a purpose built lecture theatre and education suit fitted out with equipment and software for digital imaging. This enables The Society to deliver a programme of practical educational courses and events for members and non-members throughout the year.

The Royal Photographic Society is well respected for its outstanding achievement in education. Although the majority of its work focuses on supporting and organising practical workshops/lectures it also organises community projects and work in schools and colleges. The Society is also proud to host and support the annual Duke of Edinburgh Gold Award Photographic Residency.

The Society plans to continue with its investment into formal and informal education using its wealth of resources from its historical roots including the 250,000 images and artefacts from its world famous Collection now housed at the National Media Museum in Bradford
