THE successful competition to design the Mayor of Ross-on-Wye’s Christmas card was well supported this year.

Mayor, Cllr Bev Pope, was keen to continue this tradition and to run the competition again this year. The Town Council was inundated with fantastic festive entries, and the mayor was impressed with the standard and creativity of the designs.

Mayor Cllr Pope found it difficult to choose just one winner, and after much deliberation she selected two.

The winners are Amelka Szwaracka, age 11 who drew a wonderful festive design. The other winner was, Imogen Morris, age nine who drew a beautiful Christmas scene.

The Mayor recently met Amelka and Imogen to offer her congratulations and to present them both with a little treat to say well done.

Both cards are being printed and will be available to purchase from next week from the town council offices at the Town Hall in Cantilupe Road for £5 for a pack of five.

All profits going to the Mayor’s chosen charity for the year - Home Start Herefordshire. To reserve a pack email [email protected].
