2024 Lymm Festival and Lymm Transport Day - we were there!
We kicked off our involvement with the first outing of our new display gazebo at Transport Day. There was a huge amount of interest and we had so many visitors, so thank you visiting. We also have to thank Lymm Parish Council for their grant, which enabled us to purchase the gazebo and our new banners.

ELIZABETH PULMAN TALK
In February, Alan Williams of the Lymm Heritage Centre presented the life of times of Elizabeth Pulman the first female professional photographer in New Zealand who was born in Lymm. It was a fascinating evening that was enjoyed by a good turnout and we were pleased to see a number of new faces.
We are very grateful to Alan and you can learn more about Lymm Heritage Centre here

The following week saw our Lymm Festival exhibition, hosted at the Baptist Church. With some great comments and with some of our prints sold to exhibition visitors, it was another great week. Our exhibition was manned by Society members and the Society is so pleased to be able to conitnue to support the community in this way.
A Year in the Life of a Farm - Agden Brook Farm
The Society was thrilled to be invited in by Frank Cookson, to record life on the farm over the course of a year. The project was to capture images which reflected the people and activities on the farm from 2023-4 and to capture these for posterity, at a time when Cheshire farm life is undergoing significant changes. Indeed, during the life of the project, the farm's dairy herd was auctioned, a sad yet invaluable moment captured by our members. In order for this important historical record to be preserved for ever, the photographs have been donated to Lymm Heritage Centre and will sit in their Reserve Collection.

Andrew Collier TALK
The Society is always happy to liaise with local businesses which in turn support the local Lymm community. We were therefore pleased to welcome local professional photographer Andrew Collier in May 2024, when he came to the club to give us a presentation called "Talking Portraits and demo". You can read about Andrew's experience with us in his blog here.
The proof of the pudding is.... and here it is, Andrew's photograph our our President, Chris, taken on the night.
