COMPETING in the Vende Globe single-handed yacht race was the most challenging and rewarding experience of my life.
I was fortunate enough to see my dream turn into a reality. And I believe all young people should be given the encouragement to follow their dreams.
So, I've teamed up with British Gas to find the UK's Tomorrow's People.
These awards honour the country's brightest young talent - individuals who are already excelling in their chosen fields but who dream of achieving even more.
We want young people in (region) to tell us about their dreams and what they are doing to achieve them. Or if your readers know of someone who fits the bill, why not tell us on their behalf.
Send your name, address, daytime phone number and signature - and the entrant's details if you're nominating someone else - with your entry of 250 words, to British Gas Tomorrow's People, 22 Endell Street, London, WC2H 9 AD or visit www.britishgascompetitions.co.uk/tp
