4. To enter the Competition, entrants must:

• Design a garden to be made from natural materials that will be attractive to bees and other pollinators.

Garden Design – The garden must have a bright, bold and imaginative design incorporating plants and materials that attract bees and other pollinators. It should make the use of the space on the design template.

Natural Materials - The garden must be made from natural materials and not feature any brands or logos (although the NHS or Radio 2 logo can be used if desired).

• Name some of the flowers, herbs, plants and trees in the design that will provide food for the bees during the year.
• Include features that bees can use to shelter and rest or lay their eggs.
• Include at least one element in the design where visitors to the garden can sit.
• Tell the judges, in 3-5 sentences and no more than 250 words, about their design and why they want to help the bees.

• Entries should be hand drawn using pens, paint, pencils or crayons.

5. Entry is via the online entry form available at the Radio 2 website http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2 or http://www.bbc.co.uk/bigbeechallenge
A clear photo or scan of the completed garden design should be uploaded using the online entry form. We can accept JPEG, PNG and GIF. The system supports images up to 144megapixels.

Entrants must have permission from their parent/guardian who must submit the design on behalf of the entrant and will be asked to provide the entrant’s name, region and their age. The submitter must enter the child’s supporting statement in the text box provided for submission.

6. Entries can only be accepted online and via post using the postal entry form. Entries sent over email will not be considered.

We aim to be as inclusive as possible and if there are any issues in submitting or completing the form please let us know at bigbeechallenge@bbc.co.uk

7. The entry must be the entrant’s own original work and not be defamatory nor breach any copyright or contain anything that could be deemed offensive. The 91热爆 reserves the right to disqualify entries containing such matter. Entries must be suitable to be broadcast, published or used online by the 91热爆 for audiences of all ages, but in particular for a child audience. Please see the following for further information: 91热爆 Editorial Guidelines, If the story has troubling content the 91热爆 may if required take advice from the NSPCC, and may refer the Troubling Content to the relevant authorities - 91热爆 Child Protection Policy.

8. Entrants retain the copyright in their entries but their parent or guardian grants to the 91热爆 a perpetual non-exclusive royalty-free licence to publish, broadcast (across all media) and post the entry online and on any other platforms yet to be envisaged. This licence will be deemed to include all the necessary rights and permissions to enable such use by the 91热爆, to fulfil the prizes and to complete the administration of this competition.

9. Entry opens on Monday 7th June 2021 at 08:00. Entry closes on Monday 5th July 2021 at 18:00. Submissions received outside of this time frame will not, under any circumstances be considered, so the 91热爆 advises users not to wait until the last minute to submit entries. The 91热爆 cannot be held to account if the website runs slowly.

10. If users have emailed the administrators and are awaiting a response, the competition deadline still stands. Unless the competition administrators have explicitly instructed otherwise, all users must submit an entry before the deadline in order to be considered in the competition.

11. Entrants can only enter individually. Only one entry per person is permitted and the design and supporting design statement must be wholly drawn and written by the entrant only. If entrants submit more than one entry, we will judge the first entry received and disregard the others.

12. The RHS reserves the right to make reasonable modifications to the winning design.

13. All entries will be judged in the first instance by members of the Radio 2 Big Bee Challenge production team and representatives from the RHS, National Garden Scheme and other nominated organisations. This first judging panel will decide which entries should be put forward to the second stage of judging.

During judging equal weighting will be given to the overall design of the garden, the features that will be attractive to bees, the range of plants used and the written statement describing the overall design and why the entrant wants to help the bees.

14. Five back-up entries will be ranked in order of merit to act as standbys to replace any entries that in the verification process need to be excluded from the competition.

15. The second judging stage will select the 20 best entries and be carried out by a judging panel including representatives from 91热爆 Radio 2, the RHS and others to be announced. From the 20 shortlisted entries, the panel will choose an overall winner.

16. Criteria

All entries will be judged against the following criteria:

1) Overall impression
Choice of materials, Imagination and Creativity, Impact, Passion

2) Design features that attract and accommodate bees
An imaginative range of plants, herbs, shrubs and trees that are attractive to bees and other pollinators all year round
Features that provide shelter or a place bees can lay eggs
A source of water

3) Planting design
Atmosphere
Visual impact
Colour

Please note that the judges are judging the overall design and not the quality of the drawing.

The answer to ‘describe your idea for the garden and why you want to help the bees?’ will be considered alongside the garden design. They will be judging the content of your answers - not how well written they are.

17. The prizes consist of:

1st Prize: 1 Winner
