Celebrating Living Well in Telford: Family Hubs Photo Competition
Telford & Wrekin Council has announced the launch of a new photo competition aimed at capturing the reasons why residents love living in the borough.
This initiative, organised through Family Hubs, invites residents of all ages to showcase their favourite aspects of living well in Telford and Wrekin.
Participants are encouraged to submit photos that highlight what makes Telford special to them with the caption, “What I like about living well in Telford is”.
From Green Flag parks, to local award-winning high streets, or your favourite neighbourhoods, every photo is welcome.
The grand prize for the winners of the competition is a set of four tickets to enjoy a fun-filled day at Adventure Golf or Soft Play at Telford Town Park. In addition to this prize, the winning photos will be featured on the council's social media channels, bringing recognition to the talented photographers and showcasing the beauty of Telford and Wrekin to a wider audience.
