Hi everyone, it’s time to select the Orms Connect October 2012 Photo of the Month!

The winning photo will be announced on Friday 26 October and will be featured in the November newsletter (subscribe here), as well as the cover photos on our Facebook and Twitter pages. Details on how to submit your photos for next month are included in the bottom of the post.
