RPS Eastlake Medal and RPS Honorary Fellowship 2025 in recognition of an outstanding contribution to the public appreciation, enjoyment or understanding of photography.

Vivienne Gamble is the Director of Stills Centre for Photography in Edinburgh.  She took up the post in January 2025 and is currently shaping the programme that will celebrate the 50th anniversary of Stills in 2027. 

She is also Co-Founder and Co-Director of Peckham 24 festival in South London.  Peckham 24 began as a 24 hour pop-up exhibition during the second edition of Photo London in 2016, and has since grown into a major event renowned for supporting new talent and experimental approaches in contemporary photography.   Since 2023, Vivienne has been working in partnership with the V&A to host the V&A Parasol Foundation Prize for Women in Photography at Peckham 24. This new Prize is an annual initiative dedicated to identifying, supporting and championing women artists working in the field of contemporary photography.
