PRIZES are on offer for those who explore the great outdoors.

The Woodland Trust is running a national photography competition until July 31.

Warrington youngsters are encouraged to take pictures of Gorse Covert Mounds, an important nature conservation site – but no photoshopping is allowed.

The winner will be awarded £500 in high street vouchers and a three-night stay for two in a top hotel.

Categories are forests and people, all creatures great and small, ancient woods and modern wonders, and nature’s playground, for photographers aged 14 and under.

All you have to do is upload the photo at visitwoods.org.uk
