Youngster named winner of MP's Christmas card competition
A 10-year-old girl has been named the winner of an MP's Christmas card competition.
Wolverhampton South East MP Pat McFadden hosted a reception for the winner and runners-up of his annual competition on Friday.
The event took place at the mayor’s parlour where Mr McFadden and the Mayor of Wolverhampton, Sandra Samuels, presented the winner and five runners-up with certificates and prizes from the House of Commons.
The winner was Yasmin Hassan Anas, aged 10, from St Luke’s Primary School, Wolverhampton.
Mr McFadden invited school children from across the constituency to design his MP Christmas card for 2022.
The card is currently being distributed widely around the constituency to businesses, other MPs, places of worship, charities and constituents.
This year’s theme for the card was Big Ben and the Elizabeth Tower in memory of the late Queen.
Mr McFadden said: “Thank you to Yasmin Hassan Anas, aged 10, from St Luke’s Primary School, for designing my Christmas card this year and to all the schools and children that entered the competition.
"I received over 300 entries from children across Wolverhampton South East and had a great time looking through all the excellent designs.
"I also want to thank Revolver World and Pallet Track for sponsoring the Christmas card this year.”
