The Realise Your Dream application process has two key steps as
follows:
1. Applicants must complete the online
application form.
2. In completing the form, Applicants must demonstrate their talent
and creativity, whilst addressing the selection criteria.
You can do this through a blog, Flickr site, MySpace page, sending
us examples of your work via post, making a DVD or a pod/vodcast
– however you think you can best represent you, your work,
and your ambition.
Both requirements must be completed by Thursday
31st July 2008.
Mailed submissions will be accepted if postmarked
on or before Thursday 31st July 2008. Please note that we are
unable to return ANY submitted material. Please do not send us
original materials.
We are looking for applications that uniquely
address our selection criteria. Applications should:
- Clearly articulate the Applicant’s career
goals
- Demonstrate a fierce determination to succeed

- Provide examples of relevant work experience
undertaken in the chosen field
- Give us an indication of the talent and achievements
of the Applicant
- Address how and why the UK in particular will
play an important role in shaping the career of the Applicant

would like to undertake should they be offered a 2008 Realise
Your Dream award
Please take your time in addressing the selection
criteria, and remember that that we are looking for a body of
work that shows outstanding achievement in your field.
If your submission is to include any posted materials, they must

Collaborative practitioners may apply collectively,
but they are eligible for one award only. The prize remains the
same in terms of scope and value.
Each member of the group wishing to be considered
for the award will need to demonstrate their individual suitability
against the same criteria, and complete separate application forms.
Collectively, applicants need to demonstrate how they will make
the opportunity and the award work for them as a group –
creatively, logistically, and financially.
