Ruth will choose a winning card by the end of October.Ruth says: ‘I hope the competition will be as successful as it has been in the previous two years. This is an excellent opportunity for children to develop and enhance their inventive and creative skills. I look forward to receiving and admiring the artwork from children in the constituency.
