The Venture group concept was started by Jim Henson and Phil Peddy in 2005, and Headley was one of the original three groups. It has been going well ever since, with a few changes of members, but two members have belonged to the group since its inception.

We meet  regularly through the year to discuss photographs and suggest topics, either in a member’s house or, lately, on Zoom. We have practical sessions occasionally on technical matters such as flash or depth of field, and hopefully at least one meeting each year is a visit to a place of interest.

We normally have a social gathering near Christmas, usually afternoon tea somewhere local.

Headley Vemture Group celebrates 20 Years
On 6 December 2024 it was exactly 20 years since the group was formed, with two of the original members still present. We had a party at Colin amd Christine’s house, just ahead of Storm Darragh which brought such strong winds and rain. The food and drinks flowed, and so did the conversation.

Over the years we have had a number of different members, and to remember them we watched a set of photos showing past times and events.  A big thank you goes to our excellent hosts.
