Time to capture summer in all its glory by taking photos of the nature on your operational Quarries, partly or fully restored Sites or any Site Plant. Then send in your images and compete for a range of prizes and inclusion in the MPA Quarries and Nature 2019 event. Entering could not be easier. Just send your images (up to 5 – between 1MB and 5MB each in size) which should be sent as separate emails direct to MPA at naturephotos19@mineralproducts.org – please read terms and conditions below.

These can be images of species (both fauna and flora) and habitats (including their landscape setting) found on Operational Quarries, partly or fully restored Sites. The competition is open until 3 September 2019 and any photos entered must have been taken between 1 January 2018 and 2 September 2019. Winners will be announced and showcased at the MPA Quarries and Nature event in Autumn 2019. There are two categories – firstly, for all employees from our member companies and secondly for volunteers at restored mineral sites.
