We, at the Stroud School of Art, lost our dear colleague at the beginning of the 22.23 academic year, and whilst trying to come to terms of this terrible loss, we have had to consider how best to keep his devotion to his subject and students alive.

We launched the Student Award in 2022 and awarded the first set of students based on the votes from former and current tutors, local photographers (both amateur and professional) and a public vote, and we would like for this to continue.

We are raising the prize money here to support the monetary awards given to the students and to secure this award process for futures to come.
