As our dragons prepare to make the difficult decision of who will benefit from the cash giveaway, this month's collection is already underway.

Our campaign, in association with the Norfolk Community Foundation, has already given out more than £40,000 to local groups.

The cheques have been banked and projects across the region have been given the kick start they need to transform their areas.

But to be in with a change of winning, you need to make sure your 500 tokens and application form make it to an Eastern Daily Press office by the deadline date.

The deadline dates for 2016 are:

- March's tokens need to be submitted by Friday, April 8
