Maidstone
Founded in 1902, one of Kent's oldest camera clubs welcomes everyone from phone snappers to seasoned enthusiasts. The weekly programme mixes guest speakers, practical evenings, friendly competitions and outings.
This group is run independently by its organisers, not by InKent. Times, venues and prices can change, so get in touch with the group before your first visit. If the group involves children, ask the organiser about safeguarding.
