Reminder of AGM & renewal of your membership
Our next AGM will be held online on Thursday October 8th from 4p.m
This will now be a stand-alone event, so we can give the time needed to feed back on the survey, and discuss your views fully. The industry Panel will be convened later in the Autumn.
Memberships came up for renewal in July 2026. For those of you who have not yet renewed your 2026-2027 membership, you will need to do this in order to be able to vote at the AGM. Please visit our membership page on the website to do this. If your institution has agreed to cover your membership please let us know and we can correspond with them directly.
A Teams link will be sent out the week before the AGM to all CURRENT members.
News from your Chair
It is hard to believe it has been 2 years since I started working in this role as an advocate for our subject, along with the other members of the exec team. We have achieved some successes, but there is lots still to be done. I will give a full report to all members at the upcoming AGM, but wanted to share with you here that I will be stepping back from the Association at that time. The results of your survey feedback, as well as our July roundtable, and discussions with other organisations whose interests we share, will give guidance to the future directions of the APHE.
This a good time for those who have the drive, energy & capacity to join the rest of the team in taking the organisation forward. If you think you could be one of those people, please attend the AGM, where we will be asking for members to step forward.
If you have not yet, please do share your views via our survey, so you can be represented in the decisions that are made in future months.
The survey will remain open until September 28th. Here is the link again:

CHANGING OUR NAME…
We believe that it is time to ‘formalise’ a few changes to our organisation. Small shifts which reflect trends of the last few years…
(1) We are moving from primarily institutional to individual membership.
(2) We support those involved in all stages in the development of photographers from secondary to higher education.
To reflect these dynamic shifts, we are changing our name from “The Association for Photography in Higher Education” to “The Association for Photographic Education”. While we make this change now, we expect it to be ratified formally at our next AGM.
If you have thoughts, views, or ideas, related to these shifts, please email us so that we can explore them together.
