The High Sheriff is offering the opportunity for one young person to become a young High Sheriff for the day. You will have the opportunity to accompany the High Sheriff and help them undertake their tradition role and carry out their official duties on behalf of the King, for a day, (or part days).

As this is a very high-profile competition, winners may be filmed by local news.

This is an opportunity to stand out and be a part of something unique.

The competition task:

Produce a 3-minute video clip or write a 500-word essay, or 200-word poem on why you would want to be High Sheriff for the day and submit it to: highsheriffcomp@gmail.com

Some of the features we are looking for are below, however, this is an open task and each piece will go through a judging process. A small team of semi-professional judges will judge all entries and will put forward the top 25 to the High Sheriff’s community judging panel.
