View some amazing entries from the Tales from the Riverbank Photography Competition! Enjoy the magic of our chalk streams captured on camera and read the inspiring stories behind them.

Beloved by their local communities, the chalk stream headwaters of the Rivers Test and Itchen are known for their incredible clarity, iconic species, and lush greenery. Rich in history and teeming with life, these waters bring wonder to the landscapes in which they flow.

Last year, we asked Hampshire residents to capture the magic of these streams on camera through our Tales from the Riverbank Photography Competition. The competition offered Heritage, Landscape, People, and Wildlife prizes, with further Young Photographer (under 18) and Community Choice (decided by public vote) awards.

We’re now delighted to display a selection of the competition entries in the Main Hall of the Gill Nethercott Centre in Whitchurch. Come along to see some truly amazing images and hear the personal stories behind them.

Entry is free!

Please note that the centre has limited opening hours, so we recommend you contact them to check before visiting www.gillnethercottcentre.org.uk
