RPS Events - Northern Region

In the recent survey of the region’s members, a large number of people indicated that they would be interested in attending photowalks. Therefore, a series of Coastal photowalks around the region has been arranged. These events will be a group of people (8 max) meeting up in a friendly atmosphere to take photographs, have a cup of tea and then sharing their favourite images afterwards. 

A walk has been arranged in each of the four parts of the region, Cumbria, Northumberland, Teesside and Tyneside. The walks have also been deliberately arranged on different days of the week to try and cover different options for people. It is appreciated that there will still be location/day combinations that don’t work for people. If this is your case and you would be interested in attending an event like this, then please email: northernsecretary@rps.org
