The Big Picture
November 25, 2016
The Chartered Institute of Housing (CIH) are celebrating 100 years by launching an exciting competition.
The Big Picture is a photography competition designed to illustrate the real value of housing. They are inviting housing staff and housing residents (including property guardians) to submit a photograph they think sums up the real value of housing.
We think it sounds like a really exciting opportunity for our staff and guardians who are engaged in the real value of housing to participate in.
If you would like to be in with a chance of winning, and for more information about rules and guidelines, please take a look at The Big Picture page on their website.
Submit your photographs along with a brief description to marketing.communications@cih.org by 6th January 2016, we will be! And please do mention us if you’d like.
