The HealthyU Photo Competition is back!

As part of University Mental Health & Wellbeing Day on 22 February 2012 we are running a Healthy U photo competition focusing on your Mental Health & Wellbeing.

We’ve all heard of eating five fruit and veg a day to keep us physically healthy, but what about doing five things a day to help us stay mentally healthy?

The five-a-day are:

  1. Connect with the people around you.
  2. Do something active.
  3. Take notice of the world, catch sight of the beautiful, remark on the unusual.
  4. Learn something new.
  5. Do something nice for a friend, stranger or yourself!

We are asking you to capture one of your five-a-day on camera to demonstrate what helps you stay mentally healthy. Send us your photos with a little bit of info telling us which of the five-a-day your photo represents and what makes you feel good.

There will be prizes for the most thought provoking photos!

Don't forget to come down to the SU Hub on Wednesday 22 Feb to pledge one of your five a day and learn more about looking after your mental health & wellbeing at University.

The prizes

  • First Prize - £60 worth of iTunes vouchers
  • Second Prize - £40 worth of Blackwell vouchers
  • Third prize – 5x personal trainer sessions

The rules

  • No more than three submissions per person
  • Open to University of Nottingham students
  • Keep it clean!
  • The judges' decisions are final
  • See the full terms and conditions
