Back by popular demand, Romans’ annual Local Picture Competition – entries open on 12th June.

To enter, send in a photograph showcasing your hometown in the best possible light, demonstrating why it’s a great place to live. Those who accomplish this in a single photo can win up to £500 in vouchers as well as a £1,000 donation to the charity of their choice.

“We want to know what makes your hometown unique! Whether it’s a historic landmark, a breath taking view or a busy high street, we want to see why you love to live there” explains Romans Sales Director Antony Gibson.

In addition to winning shopping vouchers, the lucky winners and runners up can select a charity of their choice for a donation of up to £1,000 to be made by Romans. We have four prizes up for grabs, a winner selected by the public and a winner and two runners up chosen by our panel of independent judges.

The judges are looking for a photograph that…

  • Captures your home town
  • Demonstrates why it’s such a great place to live
  • Could be used on a postcard
Last years’ winners were Alice McCarthy and Amanda Smith whose stunning photos of their local woodland made us see just how peaceful and tranquil their home towns are.

The competition is open to anyone aged 18 or over. Voting commences immediately once the competition begins, and anyone can vote - even those who don’t enter the competition.

The rules are simple; the photographs must be taken within an area Romans estate and letting agencies operate, this includes; Reading, Wokingham, Basingstoke, Farnborough, Henley-on-Thames, Maidenhead, Winchester, Sunningdale and Farnham and everywhere in between.
