Hobby photographers, nature lovers, and animal lovers who enjoy photographing Northamptonshire wildlife could have their work published on a calendar released this year.
In addition to capturing images from across Northamptonshire, Bedfordshire, Warwickshire, Oxfordshire and Leicestershire, there will be an all-inclusive award for the best adult and best young photographer.
The calendars will be distributed to customers, residents, community partners and partner charities and will be displayed in all marketing suites of the developments of the contest organizer Mulberry Homes.

Kerry Jones, Director of Sales and Marketing at Mulberry Homes, said, “We are very excited to be launching our Photo Calendar Contest. At Mulberry Homes, we strive to provide as much support as possible to local communities and areas where we build new homes, and are committed to incorporating sustainable and ethical practices into our core values at every opportunity.
“It’s a big part of our mission to protect local wildlife and create safe environments for nature to grow and thrive in. Raising awareness of how we can protect endangered wildlife such as hedgehogs is very important to us and we look forward to sharing our passion with residents and community groups alike.
“We look forward to receiving listings on locals’ favorite wildlife spots, and more, and can’t wait to create our own 2022 nature-themed calendar for everyone.”
The closing date for entries is Monday, November 15, 5 p.m. Representatives from Mulberry Homes and a panel of community partners will then judge the entries and select 12 winners, who will appear on a 2022 calendar, with a picture representing each month of the year.
Each winner receives vouchers worth € 100 that can be used for photographic equipment of their choice. From the 12 winning entries, the jury will also select an overall adult and an overall junior winner, each receiving an additional £ 50 and the award on the front page of the calendar.
