A photography competition has been launched which will showcase inspiring images of people and communities from across the country.

The Communities in Focus contest is inviting photographers to submit pictures of local events which highlight the brilliant people, groups and activities that are the life of the community.

In our region, the Christmas lights switch-on events such as those in Hull city centre, Newland Avenue and Cottingham are just some of the upcoming events which will provide opportunities for photographers to showcase the great work and community spirit of local people.

The contest has been set up by the Big Lottery Fund (BIG) and national communications charity Media Trust, in partnership with the Thisis and localpeople community news sites run by Northcliffe Digital.
