Young Geographer of the Year

Want to win a month in the Himalayas or a Mountain Bike or even better the title of Young Geographer of the Year? Then you need to visit the WEBSITE of the Geographical Magazine of the RGS for more details and an application form. Give it a go, you will never know unless you try !

This is what the RGS have to say: "This year’s Task: Explore your world? We want you to carry out a project that involves you exploring the world around you. The project must be completed somewhere in the UK, and must involve you getting out into the real world and making a geographical investigation – it could be a survey of your local streets or a study of a stretch of coastline. We want you to bring geography alive and show how it helps us to understand the world in which we live. Your entry can take whatever form you think is most appropriate – be it a written report, a short video film, a photographic essay, an annotated map, an audio file or a mix of all of these. The important thing is that you get out of the classroom, away from your computer screen and into the outside world."
