Hi guys, I thought I'd start another thread & condense it as best as possible so it is a bit easier on our weary brains :confused:

There are only a few more days before nominations begin for June so I thought I'd get in early so we can all be prepared. Don't forget that if your charity wins you go into the draw to win $500, make sure you tell family & friends as it is a great incentive.

The other great thing about this comp is no one uses your contact info for telemarketing purposes, most do these days :mad:.

EDIT 12th June: I just heard back from Change For ME & they have not acheived their charity status as yet. They expect that to occur by the next competition & said they will let me know.

So perhaps Alison Hunter would be a good option for June?

French Tulip has very kindly offered to post the competition on Facebook :thumbsup:, Thanks Tulip :hug:

And I have arranged for it to be posted on the Not Crazy Forum also.

If anyone is on another forum & is able to post it that would be awesome.

I'll keep checking each day & let you know when the comp starts ;)

I have wasted so much time & energy trying to find the correct link to the nomination forms for this comp, none of the above links take you to the form anymore :mad:

I have emailed 3AW to ask for a link so hopefully it will pan out, if anyone else has the link please post it here!
It would be great if we could try for July.

I did find out that it starts on the 7th of each month.
