    They maybe want all the winners to be confirmed before the prizes are randomly allocated, prizes including a chocolate coin, a paper clip, a blank sheet of paper, a pencil, one staple, a used stamp, an elastic band etc.

    Local charity Bay Trust Radio has been presented with the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service, the highest accolade given to volunteer groups across the UK.

    Volunteers from the station were presented with the crystal award by Mrs Susie Bagot MBE DL – Deputy Lord Lieutenant of Cumbria – at a celebration evening. The team also received a signed certificate from Her Majesty The Queen.

    The award recognised the charity for providing a vital local radio service to hospitals and the local community, entirely by volunteers who devote their time alongside employment or education. The Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service is often referred to as the MBE for voluntary groups.

    One of the other prizes is a used Biro but as a charity they want to get the maximum use out of it before giving it away:rotfl:

    Is there a full list of prizes?

    Sounds like a bit of daft fun :rotfl:

    We've all seen these comps before, was it last year or the year before some one got 3 toffees in the post, and folks got 1 sweet from a tin of Roses

    I'm presuming they will still have to send out the prizes :eek:

    And it may make a few folks read T & Cs ;)

    Strangely they promoted the competition for all 12 days on Twitter where they have 900 more followers (2,300) than they do on FB (1400) but the entry had to be via FB.

    A local charity run radio station has pushed out the boat for the pair of used cinema ticket stubs, an on air dedication, a "mystery" (empty) envelope and the actual star prize of a studio visit and the chance to meet some of your favorite presenters.


    Prizes are subject to change (cause they are made up) but could be be of similar value.

    My prize expectations would be based on it being a charity run local radio competition so they shouldn't have significant prizes (unless it's a fund raising effort to drive raffle ticket sales etc) also it's a FB page unlikely to have a prize of much value as it only has 1,400 followers and no real reason to try drive that number up.
