https://www.mccarthyandstone.co.uk/terms-and-conditions/colourful-characters

It says you can download a form from the website but the comp doesn't open til 4 April so can somebody bump if they spot it before me?

Entry forms will be judged by the Promoter and the best entries (in the judge’s sole discretion) will be called for a telephone interview between Monday 9th May 2016 and Sunday 22nd May 2016. Following the interview, three entries per region will be selected as finalists for that region and then their entry forms will be reviewed by a panel of judges between 20th June and 27th June. The judges will select one overall winner per region who will receive a £100 experience voucher.

The nine regional winners will go forward to a social vote on https://www.facebook.com/mccarthystone where their photograph and mini profile will be featured. McCarthy & Stone Facebook fans will vote for the national winner who will have the option to choose the main prize of one holiday from a list of holidays provided by SAGA Holidays. These include: (1) A World in One Country – South Africa (2) Outrigger Mauritius Beach Resort – Mauritius (3) Northern Lights Adventure (4) A Voyage to the Baltic.

The regions are as follows: Southern, South East, South West, North London, East Midlands, West Midlands, North West, North East, Scotland.

    McCarthy & Stone are searching for the nation’s most Colourful Characters - people aged 60 and over who are living life to the full,
    redefining retirement and doing anything but acting their age!

    What makes you a colourful character?
    Maybe you’ve got the same attitude as a person half your age, follow the latest fashions, or remain active by jogging daily or skydiving from a plane! Tell us about your unusual interests and hobbies.
    Whatever your story, let us know and don’t forget to tell us how you bring colour into your life and remain young at heart. You could be crowned our 2016 Colourful Character Champion!
