'You changed me': Your letters for the BBC's Identity season

Are you a letter writer?

As part of the BBC's Identity season, we'd like you to write a letter to the person, event, place or thing which has changed you.

Your letter could be published on the BBC News website, or it may be read by a celebrity or actor on Identity Live day on 18 April, when one of your letters and some written by notable figures on the subject of identity will be performed.

If you would like your letter to be considered, here's what you have to do.

Chose the subject of your letter - it could be someone who inspired you, an illness you conquered, an event, a chance meeting with someone or a place you will never forget.

Your letter should be an explanation of how that person, place or object has changed your identity and who you are today.

Once you have written your letter of no more than 300 words, email it to us, scan it or take a picture of it and send it to us, along with a photo of yourself, in one of the following ways:
