    Photography by Mark Wilkinson who was a student at the Arts Insitutute. Mark’s photograph of a family relaxing on Boscombe beach won the Channel 4 Year 1 competition in July 2001, first claiming the prize for best in the category "play" and then winning against the other four category winners. The competition attracted over 13,000 entries and was so popular that the organisers decided against holding it a second time for fear of being overwhelmed. Mark's collection was part of the BNCE millennium project.
    Photography by Jordi Robert, this colourful collection of groynes during renovation work in 1999 was also part of the BNCE millennium project. Jordi is a film-maker who works with community groups.
