New photographic competition celebrates Brighton & Hove’s trees

Entries open for inaugural ‘I love this tree because…’ photo competition.

Photographers are being invited to enter an exciting new competition exploring and celebrating Brighton & Hove’s trees.

‘I love this tree because…’ has launched ahead of the first Brighton & Hove Tree Festival later this year.

Finalists’ work will be exhibited at the Jubilee Library in June and at the CPRE Sussex AGM in July. They will also be shown on the CPRE Sussex website.

Entries close on 7 May. Winners will be announced at the Fantastic Elms and Other Amazing Trees Forum on 18 May.

The photographic competition forms part of the Brighton & Hove Tree Festival 2024. The aim of the festival is to raise awareness of the immense value of trees to the city and its residents.

Organised by a team of volunteers and supported by CPRE Sussex, the Sussex countryside charity, the festival is sponsored by Connick Tree Care, Hanningtons Brighton and Rampion.

It will run over two weekends in May. A full programme will be announced shortly.
