In North East Lincolnshire, the Grimsby Christmas lights switch-on, festive markets, and the Humberston Lions Santa Fun Run are just some of the upcoming events which will provide opportunities for photographers to showcase the great work of local people.

The contest has been set up by the Big Lottery Fund (BIG) and national communications charity Media Trust, in partnership with the Thisis and localpeople community news sites run by Northcliffe Digital.
