Do you have an eye for the stories of our heritage, the spirit of the community, the poetry of our waterways or the beauty of nature on the magnificent River Lea? If so, why not enter our Photo Competition?
The #YourRiverLea photo competition is an annual competition run by Cody Dock to showcase the beauty of the often forgotten, second river of London. It provides an annual archive of the Lea in a period of rapid change and development.
Twelve winning entries will be chosen and will be reproduced in our 2023 Cody Dock Calendar, and will also feature in our autumn exhibition for all to see. You can see all of last years finalists here.
One of these winners will also be chosen to feature on the cover of the calendar! All winners will receive a free copy of the calendar, and the rest will be sold with proceeds going to GDP’s educational and environmental programmes.
