Charity fundraising photography

Doing our bit ... In 2009 Barney attended two charity fundraising photoshoot days, one at Brownbread Horse Rescue, near Battle in East Sussex, and the other at a privately owned venue for Help for Heroes at Ardingly in West Sussex, run by a fellow photographer. But when that photographer was unable to continue, the following year Barney took on the mantle. ​And so was born "Barney's Group Shoots". ​2020 is, for Barney, year eleven, (yes, we still have plans, despite COVID-19), and in that time over 70 different photographers and over 150 different freelance models, dancers, actors, acrobats and more, ably supported by make-up artistes, hair stylists, fashion designers and many others, all of whom have given their time freely, have raised thousands of pounds for a raft of different charities. Here's the list so far, with details of the venues, all of which have been donated free-of-charge. If you would like to seek our support for your charity, then please come up with a venue, and we'll do the rest. ​2010: Brookwood Kennels and private golf course - charities: Dogs Trust and Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research. ​2011: Warnham Deer Park (by kind permission of Jonathan Lucas) - charity: Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research. ​2012: Lee Farm, Patching (by kind permission of Lady Sarah Fitzalan-Howard) - charity: St Barnabas Hospice. ​2013: Rockwood House "The Secret Mansion" (by kind permission of John Blue) - charity: Facing Africa. 2014: Nutbourne Vineyard, Pulborough - charities: SAFE Rwanda and Pallant House (Chichester) Access to Art for the Disabled. 2015: The Chiddinglye Estate (by kind permission of Lord Edmund Limerick) - charity: Offham Old Church Restoration Fund. ​2016: The Chiddinglye Estate (by kind permission of Lord Edmund Limerick) - charity: various restoration projects ​2017: Stopham Vineyard (by kind permission of the trustees - charity: Stopham Parish Church Restoration Fund. ​2018: Brownbread Horse Rescue - charity: Brownbread Horse Rescue. 2019: Free Rein Horse Rescue - charity: Free Rein Horse Rescue. 2020: (Planned) Arun CIC Direct, venue TBA.
