**The deadline for entries to the Technology4Good Youth Awards has been extended
to 14 December 2012. The Awards are a new competition to encourage young people 
to use accessible technology to help make the world a better place.**

They are open to individuals or a group aged 14 – 21 living in England. Their project
must help disabled, elderly or social excluded people, but must be either new or
a substantial new element of an existing project. Technology must be a significant
component of the project.

Shortlisted groups will receive three months mentoring from some of the UK’s top
businesses and charities.
