LNRS art competition entry

Share your photo, drawing or poem for the chance to win a £25 gift card.

Local Nature Recovery Strategies (LNRS) for Sussex have been seeking the views of local people through surveys, events and workshops. But other routes are needed to engage the the important future custodians of our landscapes,  our children and young people!

The LNRS team invite 5-17 year olds to show us what nature means to them by taking a photo, drawing a picture or writing a poem in response to one of four statements:

Statement 1: Animal homes in nature.

Statement 2: My favourite place to go to be in nature in Sussex.

Statement 3: My favourite species (animal, plant, bird etc) that I see in Sussex.

Statement 4: People and nature together (can be good or bad).

Individuals can submit up to 5 photos, drawings or poems. They will be entered into a prize draw for the chance to win one of ten £25 Post Office One4all Gift Cards (accepted in over 170 brands in-store and online). Only one prize per household.

Entries will be displayed on the website. The competition closes 30 September.  
Good luck!
