Local Jersey photographer Vince Thorne has launched this year’s photo contest 'Child of the Year 2022' in aid of local children's charity, Brightly. The contest is open to all children island-wide aged 6 months to 5 years old and aims to celebrate Jersey’s newest generation and cheer up the local community after the last two years.

Talking about why he’s chosen to hold the photo contest, Vince said “After the stress of the last couple of years, I wanted to do something to cheer everyone up, support local families who may be struggling and also support a fantastic local children’s charity. I hope that my photo contest will encourage lots of community support and after all, seeing a child’s smile is one of life’s greatest joys!”
