Entrance is by the side door and parking is available on the adjacent school playground, a fee of 50p is collected to cover the hire of the playground.

A raffle is held each meeting, the proceeds go to help provide equipment for the Society. The winner will receive a £5 Jessops voucher.  Midway through the meetings, which are usually over by 10 p.m., a break is taken for refreshments. Coffee and chocolate is served by members on a volunteer rota basis. The break gives the opportunity for new members to get to know the more established members.

The Society meets as a single group on most evenings but occasionlly the meeting divides into groups with particular interests. These groups are:- 

Print group: This includes members whose special interest is in print making both black and white and colour.

Digital Imaging: This group is for members who are interested in the comparatively recent method of producing images by the use of computers.  

Transparency group: For members whose interest is in the production of colour slides.

AV (Audio Visual): Members in this group meet in members’ homes to bring together slides with taped commentaries on specific themes or locations.

Studio group: The Society organises studio and location photography events from time to time.

Twice a year, at Christmas and in the Spring, the Society has social evenings.  During the summer outings are arranged, these depend on the level of support to make them viable.

The Society is affiliated to the East Anglian Federation of Photographic Societies (EAF) and through it to the Photographic Alliance of Great Britain (PAGB). It also has links with Fotoclub of Koblenz with which Norwich is twinned.

Each year the Society has an exhibition of members’ work which is exhibited in the Cathedral and awards are made for the best work in specific categories.  The award of trophies is decided by a panel of independent judges.

There is also a self selected (members submitting their best work with no judging taking place) Exhibition held annually.
