Competing against hundreds of clubs from around the world, the society impressed international judges with a bold and compelling portfolio of images. This remarkable achievement places British amateur photography firmly in the global spotlight and marks a proud moment not only for Rolls Royce members but for our entire Federation.

People often ask what the club’s “secret” is. According to Chairman David Cudworth, the answer is simple: teamwork.

“Our most advanced members can only create world‑beating images because everyone in the club is constantly raising the bar. Each of our members contributes to the standard of photography we’re known for. Every one of them has played a part in this world‑beating achievement. This World Cup win is a victory for Team Rolls Royce, and it truly belongs to what is a talented group of photographers and friends.”
