Our read on this award

4 figures we worked out, not the sponsor's. Free, and it takes an email address.

You also get a monthly shortlist for your county, and one-click unsubscribe deletes the record. What we store.

How these are worked out
  • How narrow the field is.Read from where the sponsor restricts it. An award open to one high school is competing against a graduating class.
  • Value for the effort.The published amount divided by the 30 minutes the sponsor's own requirements take.
  • Conditions to meet.More conditions means a smaller field, which is good news if you meet them.
  • Where it sits.Ranked against every other award we hold, narrowest field and best value for the effort first.
  • None of it is a chance of winning. We do not know how many people apply or how a sponsor chooses, so we do not publish a percentage. Anyone who does is guessing.

Remind me before this closes

We will email you a week before Jan. 15, 2027, once. Nothing else unless you ask for it.
