Calling all local snappers

The Health Improvement Department of the Western Health and Social Care Trust (Western Trust) is welcoming applications from local photographers across the Trust area to enter the competition centered on the theme “celebrating positive mental health.”

Debbie Hunter, Health Improvement Officer for the Western Trust said: “The theme is very much open to individual interpretation and style.

“Everyone is different; someone may prefer to take scenic photos of the countryside, whilst others may favour cityscapes or photos which capture characters or people.” There are four prizes, which include an under 18 section, consisting of Jessops vouchers, from £250 to £100. The winning photographs will also go on display at the University of Ulster Mental Health conference at Magee, on October 24/25, 2012 and will be reproduced in Western Trust publications. The closing date for entries is Wednesday, October 20, 2012.

All photographs will be judged on set criteria, this can be found on the Trust’s website, www.westerntrust.hscni.net. To obtain a hard copy of the criteria please contact the Health Improvement Department directly on 028 7186 5127 or email [email protected].
