Club meetings are held on Tuesdays from the beginning of September on a weekly basis through to the end of April.


We meet at 19.15 hours for proceedings to commence at 19.30. Meetings can consist of a visiting speaker, member’s lecture, member’s practical evening or a recorded slide and print folio. Roughly half way through the evening there is a tea break which affords the membership an opportunity for informal discussions and socialising. For a complete guide to this year’s events, see the programme.


If you would like any more information on the club, either Email Us or contact one of the Committee members. We look forward to seeing new members & guests.


Where we meet:

Regents Park is at 129, London Road, Nantwich, CW5 6LW; which is on the main A51 through Nantwich, about a mile from the town centre. (See Map) (What3Words: thatched, snaps, complain)


Our capacious meeting room is within a complex of buildings now known as Regents College. The Main Hall meeting room is accessed via the Chapel Door, to the right of the main entrance.


Extensive vehicle parking areas may be accessed from the entrance drive from London Road. (See photographs). For more details please see the Regents Park information page, by Clicking Here


How to join:

New members are always welcome and are cordially invited to attend four meetings without obligation to join (subject to a small visitor’s attendance fee). Previous photographic experience is not necessary for membership. Advice can be provided relating to all aspects of photography and photographic equipment, both digital based or film.


The Club Treasurer will provide guidance to prospective new members on the current subscription and levy costs; any new members joining mid-season will be offered a pro-rata rate for their subscription.


If your photographic interests leave you with a desire to increase your knowledge or aspire to produce images of a higher standard, then the competitive environment of club competitions provide the ideal opportunity for rapid progress.


All members benefit greatly from the many visiting lecturers who freely share their individual expertise and creativity within an entertaining environment.

Safeguarding Policy

Junior members (under the age of 18 years old) are welcome at Nantwich Camera Club and the club is aware of its duty to protect children, young people and vulnerable adults (herein collectively referred to as “vulnerable individuals”) from harm within the environs of club meetings and activities. Throughout this document a child is defined as a young person aged less than 18 years.
Nantwich Camera Club accepts and recognises the responsibilities to develop awareness of the issues which may cause vulnerable individuals harm.
Nantwich Camera Club only accepts Junior Members and Vulnerable adults at its meetings and functions when they are in the care of a responsible adult.
It is normally the case that camera clubs do not display or capture indecent images at club meetings or outings. However, it is possible that suggestive images, or images that may cause distress, could be displayed or captured. It is the Nantwich Camera Club’s policy to always make an announcement beforehand when it is known that there will be images / material that may give offence.
Portrait sessions are sometimes included in the club programme. The taking of portrait photographs of vulnerable individuals is only permitted under the direct supervision of the parent or guardian. Acceptance of this Nantwich Camera Club Safeguarding Policy is part of the conditions of membership of Nantwich Camera Club.

Data Protection Policy

The new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into effect on 25th May 2018 and the club is legally obliged to protect personal information and comply with current data protection legislation – which means Nantwich Camera Club is regarded as a Data Controller.

Nantwich Camera Club (NCC) only holds the details of its members which are needed to contact them, i.e. name, address, phone number and email address; in as far as each member is willing to supply those details.

These details are held by the Treasurer and are only made available to those other Committee members who need to have them to carry out their duties. Any person wishing to verify the information held by NCC may apply to the Treasurer.

Nantwich Camera Club is affiliated to the Lancashire and Cheshire Photographic Union (L&CPU) and, like all of the other camera clubs / photographic societies in the L&CPU, the telephone / email contact details of our club members are also held by them. NCC will not provide other organisations or individuals with any list of names, details of individual members or any other details from information it holds.

It is highly unlikely that the club will have to register for Data Protection with the Information Commissioner, given the simplicity of the information held by the Treasurer, for example we do not hold any financial data of Nantwich Camera Club members.

In addition to contact information, a record of all members’ entries into club competitions is kept. The results are documented and published, together with the member’s name, on the NCC website by the Competition Secretary. An archive of competition results is kept.

Most NCC committee members have their names and telephone numbers shown on the NCC website. They are also shown on the printed copy of the current season’s club night programme. The email addresses of committee members are made available to club members.

It is important for you to know what information we hold and how we manage and use it.

Your consent is required for us to hold the information and you can at any time requestthat it be deleted.
