Carers Australia are proud to announce the Young Carers Online Competition! Entry is open to all young people under the age of 26, who are young carers or who have been young carers. You can win one of 6 $250 JB Hi-Fi vouchers.
All you need to do is answer in 25 words or less, if you had 5 minutes with a politician, what would you tell them about the needs of young carers? Young carers are eligible to enter as many times as they like.
To enter, go to www.reachout.com/carers. The competition closes on Sunday May 9 2010 at midnight (EST). Competition terms and conditions are available on the website.
The competition is a partnership between Carers Australia and the Inspire Foundation (who host the Reach Out website). All entrants have the opportunity to receive a Young Carers Kit. Winners of the JB Hi-Fi vouchers will be determined by a judging panel that includes one young carer. All entries will be complied into a report to be presented to government.
If you would like any further information, please do not hesitate to contact Nicole Walker from Carers Australia on 02 6122 9916.
