Thanks to your support the Competition is now a prestigious annual event.

The Sharow Competition has quickly blossomed into a ‘tour
de force’ and the standard of entries is very high. It has
obviously now staked its place in the nation's photographic competition
calendar and I hope will go from strength to strength, especially given
the fact that you are able to not only provide generous prize money,
but also make substantial donations to charity. 
We are an independent competition and the only UK International Open Photographic Competition working for Charity.
PLEASE HELP SUPPORT OUR CHOSEN CHARITY
The chosen charity to be supported in 2010 is Martin House Hospice For Children & Young Adults - Registered Charity No. 517919. "We are delighted to have the support of the Sharow Photographic Competition again following the success of last year's event. The numbers of entries to the competition resulted in a substantial donation to Martin House and we would like to thank the organizers and all the participants for their contribution to the work of the hospice." |
Sharow Photographic Competition is promoted by the Trustees of St. John's Church Sharow, Ripon, North Yorkshire UK (HMRC Charity No. XN538270). The nett proceeds from the competition are used to support the work of St John's Church and a selected charity.
