MANY youngsters across Darlington entered a competition to design a charity Christmas card.
130 youngsters from the ages of four to 17 designed Christmas cards for the festive period, with all proceeds from the sale of the cards going to Darlington Rotary's charity fund.
The competition managed to raise £700 for local Covid-hit charities and the winning designs ranged from a nativity scene to a penguin.
Sue Campbell, organiser of the competition, said: "We were blown away by the number and quality of the entrants and it was a very difficult task to chose just six."
Nigel Little, Darlington Rotary president, said: "I am grateful to a number of individuals and companies who had sponsored the printing of the cards.
"It means that every penny from the sale of the cards will go into our charity account to help charities at home and further afield, many of whom have been hit hard by the Covid crisis."
The cards were sold in packs of six.
