Young Authors and Artists is an annual competition organized by the National Deaf Children’s Society in Northern Ireland as part of our fantastic arts programme. We are asking deaf children and young people in Northern Ireland to think about the following question,

“If you could invent one thing, what would it be and why?”

All deaf children and young people aged 4 to 18-years-old in Northern Ireland can apply. The NDCS uses the term ‘deaf’ to mean all types of deafness, including temporary deafness such as glue ear. There are three age categories: 4 to 8-year-olds, 9 to 13-year-olds and 14 to 18-year-olds. Deadline May 9, 2008.
