Be in with a chance of winning an Amazon gift voucher by making sure you vote in the elections this week.

Be part of the change you want to see.

Vote now with this link: https://www.solentsu.co.uk/elections/vote/156/

Since handing out doughnuts is off the cards again (thanks COVID) we thought we'd give you the chance to win a £100 Amazon voucher instead!

Then to triple the odds of you winning we've chucked in 2 £50 Amazon vouchers as well!

To enter the competition, all you have to do is vote in Solent Decides!

So by choosing the students you want to represent you and your peers for the next year, you could have £100 in your pocket (Amazon account wasn't as catchy...)!

So head to our website now and make your choices know!
