With the season’s first widespread snowfall due, members are reminded about the BMRA's photograph competition.

The 2015 photo competition winning photo submitted by E H Hassell & Sons

The theme for the 2018 calendar competition is: ‘Life in a scrapyard across all seasons.’ We are looking for photos that represent all the different jobs and faces that you might have in your yard. We are looking for snapshots of what it is like working in a yard be it Autumn, Winter, Spring or Summer. The weather may be fine or snowy, it may be light or night, it may be a good day or a bad day. It just needs to convey what it means to be part of the scrap metal recycling industry.

You will shortly be sent a poster that you can put up in the yard to encourage all budding photographs to send in their photos.

There are prizes to be won and the closing date is 1 October 2017. Submissions, which must be high resolution (+1MB), should be sent to: [email protected]

PS: Hold the date:

This year, the BMRA annual golf day and AGM will talk place on 5 July at Celtic Manor. More information will be sent out soon.
