Who deserves a special SNJ thank you message for helping your disabled child through 2020?

It's close to the end of the year... and what an indescribable year it has been!

Many of us have lost someone dear. All of our children and young people have been affected in some way. All of us have been affected too. But some of us have had amazing help that we perhaps didn't expect. Here's your chance to say thank you.

Send in your thank you tribute in under 50 words

We'd like to give you the chance to publicly thank someone in your disabled child/young person's life who has gone above and beyond to help you and them through this year and to whom you're especially grateful. Every tribute sent in will appear in a special post on SNJ (we will use first names only, if preferred). If you are a disabled young person aged 16-25, you can nominate someone yourself, if you wish.

We will choose five of the people you've thanked, at random, to receive a £20 Amazon voucher. If you're selected, we'll email you and ask for their email address to send the voucher to. We'll then send them a £20 Amazon UK voucher. It can be a friend, relative, teacher, support worker or any other kind of professional. Anyone who you think deserves it. Last day for nominations is THURSDAY 10th DECEMBER 2020

Read the next bit very carefully!

What you need to do

1. Fill in the form below, saying thank you in 50 WORDS OR LESS (we'll be putting your words into a "Thank you" printable image gallery, so space is limited) to pay tribute to a friend, family member, educator, health professional, social care worker, LA official - anyone - who has done something they didn't need to but did, to make your child/young person's life better this year.
2. Make sure you enter YOUR email correctly, as after the closing date, we will draw five names from the nominees who will receive an emailed £20 Amazon UK voucher each. It's a random draw because if you've taken the time to send in their name and what they've done, then they are clearly worthy of winning so it's not fair to judge who did the best thing. If you are drawn, we will email you to ask for their email address to send the voucher to.
3. The closing date for this is 10th DECEMBER - so you have just over one week. ENTRIES RECEIVED AFTER 10TH DEC WON'T BE INCLUDED
4. Read the terms and conditions at the end and indicate you have agreed to them in the box.
5. Sign up for SNJ new post alerts if you want to and you are not already signed up.

Nominate your SEND Hero 2020!
