Today is World Photography Day! To celebrate we launched a competition to capture the very best images of our local area, and asked for your submissions on the post below. We will keep the competition open for the rest of today; please do submit your photos so that we can share your talents with our residents

As World Photography Day approaches, it's time to love your local area! Are you a budding local photographer in our area, or somebody who likes to capture the heart of where we live? We’re looking for landscapes, and the moments that make our place truly special; snapshots of every day life. Why? Well, we’re aware that many of us will be staying closer to home this summer. We want to celebrate all there is to do in our local area, so we’re asking for entrants to submit just ONE photograph that captures the beauty you see every day. Entries should capture Rock Ferry, or the immediate area, to remain local to our home. It could be a picturesque landscape, a local attraction or event, a bustling street scene or the wildlife where we live. Celebrate our locality! The winning entry will become a limited-run postcard for our home’s residents to send to their loved ones. Get snapping, attaching your photograph of Rock Ferry or the immediate area to this post. The closing date is 19th August, World Photography Day - no entries will be accepted after this date. Please include a description with your photograph so we know where it was taken. This competition is in no way affiliated with Facebook. The judges’ decision is final. One entry per person

Today is World Breast Cancer Research Day. This occasion falls on the eighteenth day of the eighth month each year, as a nod to the 1 in 8 women, and 1 in 833 men who will face breast cancer in their lifetime. Today we think about the research being done to find a cure, and come together for those facing the disease

Today marks the 80th anniversary of VJ Day, or Victory Over Japan Day. On this day 80 years ago Japan surrendered, which effectively brought the Second World War to an end. Today, as always, we remember those who gave their lives during the conflict, as well as giving thanks for those who continue to serve our country. We honour your sacrifices and pledge to remember all that you have done for us

Today marks the start of National Science Week, which is a celebration of all things, well, science! This week people of all ages will be embracing science, technology, engineering and maths, which are known collectively as STEM. Some of our residents once held jobs within the STEM field, and it’s lovely to hear about their expertise. Who knows who we could inspire next?
