TIMES readers have the chance to tell their mums just how much they love them in a simple text message.

The Times is inviting people to send in words for their mums using their mobile phones and they will be printed in the paper in time for Mother’s Day on March 18.

Texts must be sent to 80058 and start with the keywords ‘NST mother’ followed by your mum’s name and then your personal message. This can be a maximum of 25 words, including the name, and should be received no later than 10am on March 9.

All messages will be included in the Times on March 14 and will cost �1 plus the standard network charge.
