T&Cs:

Who are we? The prize draw is organised and run by Future Publishing Ltd (that’s us!) at Quay House, The Ambury, Bath, BA1 1UA.

When you can enter: You can enter from 00:01 on 26 March 2026 and entries close at 23:59 on 30 August 2026. If you send your entry late or if it’s not complete, we can’t accept it.

Who can enter: Open to anyone who lives in the UK. If you are under 16, you will need parental consent. To enter the Junior photo category, you must be 15 or under and will need parental consent. Anyone who works for Future or our other companies can’t enter.

How many times can you enter? You can only send one photo entry and one article entry. If you send more than one, or if you send entries in different ways, for example, one entry by post and another by email, we will only count the first entry we receive.

Your entry must be your own work! We will not accept entries which are produced or created using artificial intelligence (AI), or other automated software. This means that any entries you send to us must be work that you have created yourself.

How many winners? There will be one winner in total for each category of the competition.

How we pick and tell the winner: We will pick a winner by chance from all winners who entered correctly. We’ll email you (or your parent or guardian for anyone under 16) within 28 days after the prize draw ends to let you know that you’ve won, and to ask for an address in the UK to send the prize. If we don’t hear back from the winner after 28 days, we’ll pick a new winner.

About the prize: Future will send the prize to you. Sometimes, if we can’t get the exact prize, we may send a different one that is just as good or even better. You can’t swap the prize for money, or for another prize.

You don’t have to buy anything to enter the prize draw! Entry is free.

Agreeing to the rules: When you enter, it means you (or your parent or guardian for anyone under 16) agrees to these rules, and the full prize draw rules at: www.futureplc.com/competition-rules/, and the privacy policy at: www.futureplc.com/privacy-policy/. If you need any help or have any questions on these rules, please contact us at the address above.
