The BBC Radio 2 500 words story writing competition is back for 2020! It is open to anyone aged 13 or under. To enter you simply need to write an original short story of no more than 500 words about anything you like and submit your story online!
The competition closes for entries at 8pm on Thursday 27th February. The 500 Words Final will be broadcast live on BBC Radio 2 from Windsor Castle, on The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show, on Friday 12th June.
Prizes include Chris Evan’s height in books and tickets to the 500 Words Final at Windsor Castle, where superstar celebs will read the winning stories live on the radio. In addition, this year there is a Brand New Prize. One entrant will be selected at random to receive a fantastic bundle of books and an invitation to the final (for child plus a parent or guardian). They will also win 500 books for their school.
