'Local Heroes'
Children and young people in Manchester recently took part in a creative writing competition based on the theme ‘Local Heroes’. We asked entrants to write a piece of creative writing about a day in the life of a hero where they live.
Authors David Baddiel and Louisa Reid gave entrants advice and encouragement in special videos.
