A NEW handbook for council tenants will feature the work of seven young artists.
Durham City Homes recruited the help of children to add some colour to its new tenants’ handbook.
Youngsters at schools and Sure Start centres in Durham were challenged to create a design for the front cover and inside pages.
Members of the organisation’s board and tenants’ panel chose six winning designs from more than 70 entries.
The winners were: Dominic Ross, Harry Dowding and Elizabeth Griffiths, all 11, from Kelloe Primary School; Niall Fingleton, 11, from Laurel Avenue Primary School; Kristian Ghiotti, four, from Ushaw Moor Sure Start; and Harley Pallas and Archie Owens, from Brandon Sure Start, who submitted a joint entry.
The youngsters were each awarded a £25 shopping voucher.
