Junior Christmas Card Competition
Jackie Osborne from Imagika Graphic Design contacted me a few days ago. She is responsible for launching and running a competition for local children to design the cover of the new BUZZ magazine (a guide distributed to 40,000 local people with everything they need to know about shops, restaurants etc over Christmas) in Newbury. The winner and 5 runners up will have their designs printed as Christmas cards. A percentage of all sales will be donated to Swings & Smiles. Thank you! |

West Berks & North Hants Primary Schools Cross Country Championships 2010
On Thursday 2 December, 45-50 local primary schools will descend on Newbury Racecourse to take part in this highly regarded championship cross country challenge. This will be the 12th year that the event has taken place - the 'brainchild' of Nick Bull, Chairman of Team Kennet. Nick has kindly invited Swings & Smiles to attend the event and to benefit by increasing awareness and doing a charity collection. Let's hope for some good weather! |
