> “Love Living in is open to everyone across the UK. We are asking people to create
> a short film, no more than 3 minutes long, that demonstrates what you love about
> where you live. Entrants have the chance to win a selection of prizes of up to
> £1,000 plus £1,000 for a local cause or community group of their choice”.

The company defines ‘community group’ as including schools, colleges, universities,
sports and recreation clubs, charities and voluntary groups.

She added:

> “You don’t need to be an expert at making films or have any special film equipment;
> you can use a smart phone, tablet or standard video camera. Films can be by individuals,
> groups or organisations and the competition is open to people of all ages and 
> from all areas across the UK.”

The competition closes on **31 May 2015**.
