Reflecting on the entries and the winning photograph, the Mayor of the Royal Town of Sutton Coldfield, Councillor Nitish Raut, said:
“It has been a privilege to review the shortlist for this year’s Soul of Sutton Photography Competition. The theme of ‘home’ is a personal one, and it was wonderful to see how thoughtfully our residents captured what the Royal Town means to them.
“I want to thank everyone who took the time to participate and share their unique perspective of our town.”
The winning entries are published in this article and shared across our official social media channels on Facebook, Instagram, X, and LinkedIn.

The Town Council would like to thank everyone who entered this year’s competition, and looks forward to welcoming even more entries when the Soul of Sutton Photography Competition returns in 2027.
