Local Member of Parliament, Charlie Dewhirst, is once again inviting children from across the area to take part in his annual Christmas Card Competition.
Following the huge success last year, primary aged children from across our local area are encouraged to try their hand at designing a Christmas card – the winning design will be used as Charlie’s official Christmas card, which will be sent to residents, community leaders and organisations across Bridlington and The Wolds.
The winner will also receive a special prize and a certificate of achievement, and two runners-up will have their designs featured on Charlie’s website and social media.
Charlie Dewhirst MP said: ‘I’m so excited to be running my Christmas Card Competition once again. Last year’s entries were absolutely fantastic, showcasing the greattalent our local children have.
‘I’m looking forward to seeing the imaginative designs that will be entered this year. The competition has fast become one of my highlights of this time of year, and it is a great, community-focussed way to celebrate the festive season.’
Last year’s winner was Megan Kilkenny from Driffield Junior School, whose charming drawing of Father Christmas on his reindeer-led sleigh in the night sky was sent out to people across the constituency. The runners-up were James King from Nafferton Primary School, and Thomas Fawcett from Kings Mill School – both of whom demonstrated fantastic creativity and skill with their designs, which were shared across social media and featured on Charlie Dewhirst MP’s website.
Charlie has been in touch with local schools directly to provide details on how they can their pupils can enter. For more information, visit: www.charliedewhirst.uk/christmas-card-competition-2025 or get in touch with Charlie directly by emailing charlie.dewhirst.mp@parliament.uk.
