The theme of the contest and your article should focus on your role in the care sector. Here are some writing prompts that may help:

– What do you enjoy about the job and the clients you care for?

– What does your day look like?

– How do you use your skills to care for your clients?

– What symptoms/challenges do your clients face and how do you help them overcome these struggles?

– Do you have any success stories working with clients and their families?

This list is not exhaustive, so you can get creative!

We have put together a template here to help – Writing Competition Template
