The PAGB has strong links with similar organisations. In the UK, it has cross-representation with the Royal Photographic Society. It liaises throughout the world via its membership of FIAP (The International Federation of Photographic Art).
Competitions
The PAGB organises a number of different competitions. As some of these are either at Federation level or for Federation nominated clubs they are not directly relevant for PPS. There is also an individual print competition. Details of these can be found on the PAGB website, see separate link.
The two that open to PPS at a club level are the GB Cup for pdi's and the GB Trophy for prints. Both of these have an Open and a Nature section.. Pre Jan 2021, PPS had not entered these competitions in recent times if at all.
Details on the GB Cup can be found HERE
Awards for Photographic Merit
The Awards for Photographic Merit (APM) are open only to members of Clubs affiliated to the PAGB through their Federations. Applicants initially apply through their Club and and there are qualifying periods of membership for the different levels.
