L&CPU Novice Cup 2021

by  • 

We cordially invite you and your club to take part in the L&CPU 5th Novice Cup Event which is taking place on Sunday 10th October 2021 at the Elmbank Conference Centre, Half Edge Lane, Eccles, M30 9BA commencing at 10.00am. 2012(Doors open from 9.30am).

This event is designed to promote competitions and distinctions to club members who might not normally get involved in the Union’s annual competitions. Everyone is welcome to attend this event, but only club members who currently do not have any photographic qualifications or accreditations are eligible to enter the competition via their club Competition Secretary.
It is hoped that authors will attend to support their club entry and be inspired by the talks to be given by L&CPU members who have recently been through the L&CPU or PAGB mentoring service to help them achieve their CPAGB or DPAGB awards.
