Photography Competition
Remember to bring your camera! Participants will take six images based on six themes. The winning photographer will receive a superb prize and all entries will be displayed on our website and social media.
The competition starts on Friday 23 June at the conference. We will reveal the themes and give you details about how to send your photos to SEDA for judging. The deadline for entries is Monday 26 June at 1pm.
Cycling + Architecture Tour
We will have architecture tour maps available for exploring Stirlingshire by bike. You can bring your own bike or hire one from Stirling Cycle Hub (including e-bikes).
If you are planning on taking part in the cycle tour please note the following:
The long route is for those with more experience and may change at the last minute depending on the weather forecast. You will need to bring:
• a bike in good working order
• suitable clothing
• some snacks and/or money for tea & cake
• spare inner tube and pump
This ride is on public roads and cycle tracks so participants must exercise sound, mature judgement and be responsible for their own and others safety. It is your responsibility to carry out manoeuvres safely and adhere to the rules of the road. Both rides include sections of A roads and we recommend that you wear a helmet. Under 18s must be accompanied with a parent or guardian.
We look forward to seeing you!
