The competition is over, the winners have been selected and soon you will see all the fantastic images chosen in the Wonders of Wrexham 2018 calendar.

Over the past 12 months Wrexham Council have been accepting entries for the calendar competition, with amateur photographers across the County Borough displaying their talent and highlighting all that is wonderful about Wrexham.

The final winning image is the featured image of Erddig Hall, which will feature for October 2018.

Once again the winner is Geraint Roberts who has notched up an impressive five wins in this competition. His photographs have shown that he clearly knows Wrexham well and that the area has some beautiful gems for visitors.

Geraint said: “Wrexham does have some beautiful and unique architecture, sites of natural beauty and industrial heritage that make it unique in North Wales. I have enjoyed taking the photos and will continue to photograph and take pleasure in visiting these sites.”

Organisers would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who took part and shared their beautiful photos of Wrexham.

The winners will be contacted as soon as the calendars are ready and will be invited to the Guildhall by the Mayor of Wrexham who will personally thank them all for their time and efforts and he will present them with their copies of the WOW 2018 Calendar.

The calendar is with designers and will be on sale later this month. Further details about where you can buy it shortly but if you don’t miss that you can be sure of picking up a copy at the Victorian Market on Thursday 7th December.

All profits from the sale of the WOW 2018 Calendar will be donated to the Mayor’s Charities.
