A Beckenham museum has released their entry for a photography competition celebrate their spot on the shortlist for the Museum of the Year.

The photograph representing Bethlem Museum of the Mind is entitled 'My mental health doesn't define me' and was submitted by Jodine Williams.

Renowned photographer Rankin will judge the entries of all the finalists and he has also created a portrait of Bethlem Museum staff and artists.

Jillian Gregory, Conservator at Bethlem Museum of the Mind, said: “It is a thrill to see the results of our trip to Rankin's studio.

"The picture is a little reflection of all the many people who are immensely proud of Bethlem and who come together to make the Museum a special place to visit.

"Each of the five museums nominated is special in one way or another, but I'd love us to win it."

Speaking about the commission, Rankin said: “It has been a tremendous experience to work on this project with the Art Fund and museums across the UK.

"My approach has been to focus on the people behind the scenes, those, frequently unrecognised, that make museums what they are rather than just the obvious people at the top”.

The public can vote for Bethlem's entry on the Art Fund website until Wednesday June 29.
