# Video competition for trustees to win ticket to NCVO Trustee Conference - Link: https://fundraising.co.uk/2014/08/12/video-competition-trustees-win-ticket-ncvo-trustee-conference/ - Published: 2014-08-12T06:51:08+01:00 - Author: Howard Lake Charity trustees can enter a competition to win one of three free tickets to NCVO’s Trustee Conference in London in November. To be in with a chance they need to record a short video in which they tell their story of what trusteeship means to them. The competition is designed to give a little publicity for the charity they represent, and encourage others to become trustees. There are around one million trustees of charities, so the competition is appropriately titled ‘One in a Million’. Each video should be shared online to spread the message far and wide using the hashtag **#1milliontrustees**. ## Advertisement The [NCVO Trustee Conference](http://www.ncvo.org.uk/training-and-events/trustee-conference) takes place at the beginning of Trustees Week, which runs from 10-16 November 2014. So you can also append the **#trusteesweek** hashtag too. Videos should be no more than three minutes long. You could use it to explain why you became a trustee, how you chose your charity, what you have learned about being a trustee, or what you think other people could gain from being a trustee. The closing date for submitting a video is **9am on Friday 12 September 2014**. Full details including the rules are on the [Trustees’ Week](http://trusteesweek.blogspot.co.uk/2014/07/enter-trustees-week-2014-one-in-million.html) site, although in a graphic poster format rather than text. * **[Vicky Annis is new chair of trustees at The Resource Alliance](https://fundraising.co.uk/2014/10/16/vicky-annis-new-chair-trustees-resource-alliance/)**( 16 October 2014) * **[Why funders look for evidence of planning in grant applications](https://fundraising.co.uk/2014/11/04/funders-look-evidence-planning-grant-applications/)**( 4 November 2014) * **[Survey launched to help boost number of young trustees](https://fundraising.co.uk/2014/11/11/survey-launched-help-boost-number-young-trustees/)**( 11 November 2014)
