…And the winners are
We had some great entries into our competitions this year, and picking the winners has not been easy! Congratulations to the winners and a big thank you to all who entered.
Winner ‘Spirit of the Country’ photo competition:
Tim Williams, Fiji
This category was shortlisted with the final winner being chosen by public vote. Tim one with a 32% of the votes. The photo is of Tim’s host father, Tevita using a makeshift oven to bake the pastry for a custard pie. Well done Tim!
Winner of ‘Your Turn Next’ photo competition
Syeda Razzak, Japan
The judges thought this photo Syeda sent in really encapsulated the work at her placement in Japan.
Best Video
John King, Fiji
John’s film is very well put together, narrated brilliantly and uses lots of great footage from his placement. The videos purpose - to raise money for the school he volunteered is certainly a cause worth supporting and is well demonstrated. Well done John!
Best Blog
Jennifer Shannon, Malawi
We had some great blogs this year, with many making use of the blogging feature on the Lattitude website. Jennifer’s blog reflected so much of her personality as she experienced Malawi. It is a great insight into volunteering overseas in Malawi and is genuinely entertaining to read!
