About Us

According to available records kindly supplied via the Oldham Chronicle, our origins started as the Oldham Equitable Field Naturalist and Photographic Society in or around 1903 which became the  Oldham Equitable Photographic Society.  Our present title of The Oldham Camera Club was finally adopted in 1976.
