The Horticultural Trades Association (HTA) has launched its ‘Design a Christmas Card Competition’ following the success of last years’ competition.

Running from the 12th September – 14th October 2013, the competition is open to children aged 12 years and under. The lucky winner will be awarded £150.00 of ‘garden goodies’ and will be able to see their winning design printed and used nationwide in time for Christmas!

A competition open to children across the UK, we’d love to see the winning entry come from Cornwall, and so this is a call to all you mums, dads and grandparents out there to get your children and grandchildren involved! Unleash the creative talents and vivid imaginations of your ‘little ones’  – pick up an entry form here at Trevena Cross Nurseries… (and post your entry in our ‘shop letterbox’ too if you like!)

Primary schools are also able to get involved this year, with pupil entries in with a chance of winning £1,000 of National Garden Gift Vouchers for their school and of having their design printed and used nationwide. Local schools across Cornwall are entitled to their own free marketing pack if interested in participating – simply get in touch with us and we’ll order one for your school! – But you haven’t got long, entries close on 14th October.

With only a window of a month to get those entries in though, don’t delay, act now and be a proud parent/grandparent…or teacher as your child/grandchild…or pupils represents Cornwall in this wonderful Christmas competition!
