Benefits of joining N&EMPF
Access to the PAGB's Public Liability insurance. This provides one of the most comprehensive schemes available to Clubs and has a minimum £5m cover.
An automatic benefit of a club being a member of N&EMPF is the provision of Trustee Liability. This is critical for committee members of Clubs.
N&EMPF and the PAGB publish lecturers and judges whose expenses are limited to that declared in the respective handbooks. With the exception of a few lecturers this is PAGB mileage (currently 45 pence per mile). Clubs not affiliated to N&EMPF who book one of these lecturers or judges could be charged commercial rates.
Clubs are able to participate in the annual inter-club PDI and Print Championships and the two top clubs in both PDI and prints will represent N&EMPF at the PAGB Inter-Club Championship finals.
Individual club members can enter the Federation annual exhibition through their club and their work may go on to be selected by N&EMPF for use in the Inter-Federation competitions.
Individual members can also obtain Awards for Photographic Merit (CPAGB, DPAGB, MPAGB). These awards are only available through Clubs affiliated to the PAGB through their local Federation. The PAGB also provides the route by which photographers can participate in FIAP and gain its awards.
A member of a N&EMPF Club also has free admission to the Memorial Lecture held each October.
