The competition will celebrate local industry and show that Ellesmere Port is a thriving place to do business.

Upon launching this year’s initiative, Councillor Shore issued the following statement;

It was a pleasure to launch the photography competition at Thyson Technology, particularly as the theme this year is promoting business in Ellesmere Port. I would like to encourage photographers across the town to consider entering the competition. Whether you are a beginner or a budding David Bailey we want to see your photos depicting all aspects of business life in the town.

Thyson Technology Managing Director – Mike Braddock echoed Councillor Shore’s statement;

We are delighted to help Cheshire West and Chester Council launch this year’s ‘Celebrating Business in Ellesmere Port’ competition. Whilst the town is well known for its industrial heritage and motor manufacturing, the recent urbanisation of Cheshire Oaks and its surrounding areas has seen businesses of all sectors and sizes thrive. More companies than ever are operating out of Ellesmere Port and this is excellent for the local economy. Thyson Technology have traded in Ellesmere Port for over a decade now and with a move to Helix Park scheduled for September, we will be trading in Ellesmere Port for many years to come.

The competition runs until September 10th. To submit an entry send your image in jpeg format to ellesmereportsp@cheshirewestchester.gov.uk.

Marks and Spencer gift vouchers will be awarded to the winners with a first prize of £200, a second prize of £75 and a third prize of £25. In the young people category there is a first prize of £100.
