PAGB Awards for Photographic Merit

The Awards, normally referred to as APMs, are run by the PAGB twice yearly in April and November. The event is hosted by a Federation and the current listing can be found on the PAGB's website www.thepagb.org.uk under APMs. 

You should read all the current Awards Leaflets and at the end of Leaflet 5 you will find the future rota of Awards and the location by Federation.

Please ensure you are always reading the latest version of the APM Leaflets as they are regularly updated and we would advise attending an APM Adjudication for you to see the standards required.
Qualifications to Apply
All applications MUST go through the N&EMPF Awards Officer and the information required is listed as follows:

1.  Clearly state the level of APM you are applying for. Please ensure you advise of any APM Awards you have or have previously applied for.

2. The Camera Club you are a member and how long you have been a member. Previous club membership can be taken into account even if with another Federation. The current club must be affiliated to the PAGB by being a member of N&EMPF. Your membership should be a minimum of 2 years for a "C" and 3 years for a "D". You have to have held a "D" Award for 11 months before you can apply for an "M".

3. You need to be an active member of your club attending regularly and supporting club competitions, external competitions and the N&EMPF Exhibition.

We will not normally contact your club for confirmation of the above as we are aware that sone applicants do not want it publicised. If we need to, we would contact you first.

The PAGB periodically run an APM for Audio Visuals which include Photo Harmony sequences. Contact the N&EMPF Awards Officer if you are interested in this APM.

The above information should be sent, by email, to the acting N&EMPF Awards Officer,  Carol Cheetham CPAGB APAGB.
