Having considered the five entries received for the Competition this year the Committee have decided that it is not possible to proceed to a Final. The event on April 16th will therefore not take place. We apologise for any disappointment felt by the entrants and the potential audience.

We intend to break with tradition and hold the next Competition in 2024 – the first time it will have been held in an even-numbered year. We hope that, by then, the after-effects of the COVID enforced break will have subsided and we will get a larger entry.  Further details will follow in a few months’ time.
