SLIC was formerly known as South Lancashire Imaging Club but, at its AGM in 2003, it was decided to abbreviate this to SLIC, purely for the convenience of the simpler term. SLIC is a member of the L&CPU and functions within Federation guidelines.
The club came into being in the summer of 2000, as a result of a group of photographers wishing to work a little more freely than was, at that time, acceptable in federation clubs. We wanted to make images that reflected the abstract as well as reality and to be free to experiment with different approaches to making pictures.
At the moment most of our members produce their prints via an inkjet printer but there is absolutely no requirement to do so. Similarly, image capture comes via a variety of means.

Many of our members belong to other Photographic clubs and societies with no apparent conflict of interest.
Our monthly programme is a mix of visiting speakers, competitions and contributions from our own members. In early 2011 we started up a small AV group which meets every 2 months, usually on the middle Sunday of that month. We like to feel that we can offer something of interest and a warm welcome to any prospective new members.
Why not come along to one of our meetings and get to know us. Visitors are charged £3 on the door and can attend any 2 meetings, in a year, before deciding whether or not to join SLIC.
The annual subscription is £14 plus £2 on the door at each meeting you attend.
SLIC meetings are held at the Elton Liberal Club, New George Street, Elton, Bury, BL8 1NW on the first Sunday of every month, from 2pm until 5pm. Click HERE for directions.
