Mencap
LONDON, UK
Snap! [ 9 March 2009 ]
Mencap, the UK learning disability charity, is calling for budding photographers and film makers with a learning disability and their families and friends to hurry and enter its photo and story competition Now in its seventh year, Snap! is Mencap’s photo and story competition that gives a moving insight into an often misunderstood world. Every photo entered into Snap! must either be taken by or feature someone with a learning disability and be accompanied by a short descriptive story. This year, for the first time, there is also a short film category. Everyone has a story to tell and Mencap wants to hear yours. Winners will receive a fantastic state-of-the-art Fujifilm digital camera and be invited to attend a glittering, star-studded awards ceremony in London. All the winning photographs and films will be shown at a London art gallery over the summer of 2009. A selection of photos will then go on tour around the UK as part of a large-scale, outdoors exhibition called ‘This is me’, which has already exhibited on the Southbank in London and in Birmingham city centre.
