#BeMyValentown competition
Today we’re launching a Valentine’s themed competition asking our social media fans and followers to share their pictures of their town or city, with an explanation of why they think it would be a great place to study. To enter, they can use the hashtag #BeMyValentown to tweet their picture or share it on Instagram, or they can post it on our Facebook page. One winner from each channel will receive £100 in shopping vouchers.

Celebrating Lunar New Year? We want to hear from you...
On 19 February we want to showcase Lunar New Year celebrations happening in the UK. Students can engage with the campaign through Facebook and Twitter and we will be writing a blog about how UK universities are getting involved. So if you're celebrating Lunar New Year, why not send us a short piece (maximum 250 words) about what you’ll be doing? This can include past activities, future plans and how followers can take part in celebrations like Lunar New Year at your university or college. The first four providers to submit content will feature in the blog and we can also share details on social media and in our adviser and applicant newsletters. If you have content, including photos and videos, that you would like to share with us, please email socialmedia@ucas.ac.uk by Thursday 12 February.
