Christmas Card Competition 2024

Heads On are delighted to announce that our Christmas postcard design competition is back again this year!

As part of our Christmas Campaign, we will be asking individuals to write an uplifting message on a postcard for inpatients on SPFT wards over the Christmas period. But before we do this, we need a creative design for the front of the card.

And that’s where you come in! We need your help, entries will be open for just a few short weeks so get them in now! Have a go at drawing, painting or designing an A6 sized festive or winter-themed image that could be used on one of our Christmas postcards.

The competition is not only enjoyable for you to take part, it also helps make such a difference to our Service Users, either by creating a design themselves or by receiving one at Christmas. Especially, during a time when they maybe facing such difficulties and may even need to stay in hospital during the Christmas period away from their home, family and friends. So, thank you for your support.
