THIS week is Love the Jurassic Coast Week and there are prizes to be won for celebrating it.

The Jurassic Coast Trust team wants the week to celebrate the diversity of people and places in the World Heritage Site.

The team want people to send in their inspiring Jurassic Coast stories, photos, quotes and videos to the Love the Jurassic Coast Facebook page.
