Festive artist sought by Exeter office of Persimmon Homes

The countdown to Christmas has begun with one of Devon’s leading housebuilders offering youngsters the chance to design the company’s official 2012 Christmas card. 

The winning individual will not only see their design printed, but will also receive an iPod, an art kit and £250 vouchers for their school. 

Charles Church South West sales director, Nina Hester, says: “ We constantly strive to build relationships with the communities in which our developments are located and work closely with a small number of schools to host site visits and seek their assistance when naming sites. 

“This time, we are opening up the Christmas card competition to anyone aged 5 to 16, asking them to come up with a design for this year’s company Christmas card, which will be printed and used by the entire region.

“The theme of the competition is ‘Home for Christmas’ and we would like children to capture an image of what this means to them.  There are no limits to how creative or imaginative entries can be, all we ask is that the entry can fit inside an A4 envelope or be saved as a high resolution JPEG. 

“We look forward to receiving and choosing the design for our company Christmas cards.”

Entries to the competition can be emailed to laura.durose@persimmonhomes.com with Christmas Card in the subject, or posted to Laura Durose, Christmas Card Competition, Charles Church South West, Mallard Road, Sowton Trading Estate, Exeter EX2 7LD.

All entries should include the entrant’s name, age, address, contact telephone number, email address and the school they attend.
