A BUS firm wants budding photographers to submit their snaps showing the role of transport in their community.

Arriva wants people across Dartford to send in their photos of life on or around buses as part of a national competition to win a digital SLR camera.

Linsey Frostick, regional marketing manager for Arriva, said: “The bus is for anyone and everyone, and so we thought it would be fitting to ask the local community to get involved so that our photography reflects our customers.

“We are looking forward to seeing a variety of images and, in particular, we will be looking for shots that capture the atmosphere and mood of bus travel in original and exciting ways.”

To take part, send your photos to photo@arriva.co.uk by July 31.
