Welcome to Leighton Buzzard Photographic Club (LBPC)

We are a thriving camera club which normally meets every Wednesday at 7.30 pm (starting at 8 pm).

Unfortunately, during the Covid-19 pandemic and in line with Government recommendations, we are currently unable to hold any face-to-face meetings.

Instead, however, we are running our meetings online using Zoom conferencing.  We will continue to run a full programme of competitions, expert speakers and other events, that appeals to those who are new to photography as well as the established photographer seeking an outlet for creativity. Indeed, the online format enables us to use speakers who would otherwise not be available to us because they are based too far away from Leighton Buzzard.

Full details of the Programme can be found here CLUB PROGRAMME. NB The Programme is subject to change so do keep checking.
