Townend Camera Club was established in Dreghorn, North Ayrshire over 35 years ago. During that time it has grown in stature and size to the club that is flourishing today.
To keep our club membership pulsating with ideas and allow them to explore their
own style, we regularly hold workshops on the fundamental areas of photographic skills.
We have met up with other clubs, taken part in national competitions and had record breaking entries in the our hand-ins. The club will start a new season in early September when a new programme will be available. Normally we meet on Wednesdays at 7:30pm at the Townend Community Centre in downtown Dreghorn, Irvine. If you are interested in photography and want to improve your skills and can get to us, you are more than welcome to join our club.
Competitive spirit is never far away from the club’s membership, it is through striving to win that incites us to produce better images. The members have an array of interests and talents, so there is always something new to learn and to try.
Our club is affiliated to the Ayrshire Photographic Federation as well as the Scottish Photographic Federation. Through these affiliations we compete in national and international competitions.
The members of Townend Camera Club have quite a few things in common, our love of photography, a desire to improve our photography and that of others.
Feel free to browse the site. our Programme tells you of what we get up to in more detail.
Please, enjoy your visit.
