Join the egg hunt for chance to win £250 in OU module vouchers *NOW CLOSED*

Platform’s inviting you to join an egg hunt with the chance of winning £250 in OU module vouchers.

Easter eggs
There are eight eggs hidden across Platform and each of them boasts a letter. Find the eight eggs, rearrange them to spell a word and then send an email to platform-competitions@open.ac.uk by no later than Friday 27 April 2012.

Please make the subject of your email ‘Egg hunt comp 2012’ and include your answer, full name and address. Correct entries will all be entered into a draw and the winner will receive £250 in OU module vouchers, to spend at their leisure.

All the eggs can be found on Platform, the OU's community website, but to make it a bit easier, as this is such a big site, with each egg there’ll be a clue included to help you find the next one. We’ll also be linking to other Open University websites where relevant, to help flag up useful resources, but all eggs can be found on Platform only.

Here’s the first clue to get you started… if you were thinking about changing jobs or honing your interview skills, you’d probably take a look at this page.

The promoter accepts no responsibility for any entries that are incomplete, illegible, corrupted or fail to reach the promoter by the relevant closing date for any reason. The winners will be drawn and notified within 28 days of the competition closing. The name and home town of the winner will be published on Platform. The editor’s decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into.
