ANNOUNCING The BV Reader’s Photography Charity Calendar 2025

Date:

We’re thrilled to introduce the very first BV Readers’ Photography Charity Calendar, celebrating Dorset’s beauty through the eyes of our talented photographer readers! After four years of receiving so many requests, we’ve finally brought together a hand-picked collection of our breathtaking cover photos. As regular readers know, The BV receives literally hundreds of submissions every month for the highly regarded (and hugely-popular) Readers’ Photography section. Less than 40 of them will make the shortlist, and most months just 12 will be featured in the magazine.

One standout image becomes the next month’s front cover – and those cover images are now showcased in The BV’s 2025 Readers’ Photography Charity Calendar!

Each month features a stunning image taken by one of our readers: they’ve all been BV cover shots, and each one showcases the changing seasons, landscape and wildlife of Dorset. The calendar is a real celebration of local talent and of the Dorset countryside.

We have kept things simple for our first year – you order online, and the calendar will be sent directly to you. The A4 version is £12.99, and the A3 version is £16.99. And every penny of the profit will go straight to The Vale Pantry.

All proceeds from the BV Readers’ Photography Calendar 2025 will go directly to The Vale Pantry, a charity dedicated to providing essential food support to local people. The social supermarket was set up during the pandemic to help struggling people in North Dorset – they currently support more than 350 local families in need. Your purchase will not only fill your year with beautiful Dorset imagery from local photographers, but also help support a vital cause in our community.
