Calling all budding artists!
Our children's artwork competition is back! We're looking for eye catching, colourful and seasonal pictures for our September appeal calendar. Last year this appeal raised over £216K and we hope to raise just as much (if not more), but can only do this with your help! We're still looking for SPRING and AUTUMN/WINTER artwork (for months February, March, October and November of the calendar).
The lucky winners whose artwork is selected for the calen...dar will be rewarded with a ¬£10 Amazon gift voucher - and the front page winner will win a ¬£20 Amazon gift voucher! ūü§©
The new deadline is early June, so get creative and get in touch ASAP so we can arrange getting the artwork entered into the competition! Some examples of last years winners below for inspiration.
