Last month Keighley and Ilkley MP Robbie Moore launched his inaugural Christmas Card competition in which he encouraged primary school children to send in festive-related pictures to feature on the front of his official Christmas card. The competition was well received by local school children with many taking part.
Robbie Moore has announced the winner of the Christmas card competition as six-year-old Thomas Carpenter-Allum from Ilkley. The winning picture featured a snowman wearing a top hat. As well as featuring on the front of Robbie’s official Christmas card, Thomas was also presented with a House of Commons themed Speakers Bear.
Commenting Robbie said: “We had many wonderful submissions for my first ever Christmas card competition and I want to thank everybody who took part. It was a very tough choice with who to award the prize to, however Thomas’s picture ready stood out for me and that is why I though he was a worthy winner. The cards have now been printed and will be distributed across the constituency.
“I also want to thank Keighley-based A1 Stairlifts for sponsoring the card which was produced and distributed at no cost to the taxpayer.”
