CAMPAIGNING
Durham Wildlife Trust is celebrating its 50th Anniversary and it wants you to share your wildlife stories.
W
e are looking for stories that share your love of wildlife and how nature has shaped, or even changed your life. It could be heartwarming and funny, or perhaps you have found solace in nature at a difficult time. Maybe you met your soul-mate in a bird hide, or stood, stunned, watching a natural spectacle. Whatever your story is, we would love you to share it.
Entries will be judged by a Durham Wildlife Trust panel and the winning entry will be printed in the next edition of Wildlife Durham. The winner and two runners up will also be featured on the Trust website. The winning author will receive a £50 book token, and the two runners up £25 book tokens. The prize winners will also receive a coveted ‘golden’ Durham Wildlife Trust pin badge!
We would like stories from members of all ages, so please let us know your name and age in your submission.
Closing date for entries is 31st January 2021.
Stories must be submitted electronically to stories@durhamwt.co.uk. They should be no longer than 500 words.
