A picture-perfect prize

The annual Royal Mail Christmas Card Design competition is back, offering a grand prize of £300 to the best entry!

Children aged 4-16 across the UK* are again invited to put on their creative thinking caps to produce an awesome design for the annual Royal Mail 2020 Christmas Card Design competition, with the chance to win a £300 Amazon gift voucher, writes Laura Scott.

Have you seen our Christmas elves promoting the competition on the @RoyalMail social media accounts? Postman Matt Woods, from Stratford-upon-Avon, and delivery office manager Michael Francis, from Bradford on Avon (pictured), are starring in our campaign highlighting how we’re delivering Christmas – and have been going through the entries so far. Take a look here.

It’s a no-holds barred affair. Absolutely any materials can be used – from crayons, paints, glitter, stickers, coloured paper/cardboard and pop-poms to 3-D decorations.

To be in with a chance to win, our nation’s budding young artists should send their inspired creations to FREEPOST ROYAL MAIL CHRISTMAS, to arrive by 23:59 on Friday 4 December 2020.

We’re accepting just one entry per person, to be submitted by the 18+ UK resident* parent/legal guardian of a child aged 4-16. Full Ts&Cs apply, see www.royalmail.com/d8/christmascardcompetition

Note that the Royal Mail Christmas Card Design competition is NOT open to employees or agencies of RMG, their group companies or family members, or anyone else RMG deems to be professionally connected to the competition. Even though colleagues’ children are not allowed enter, their friends, neighbours and our customers’ children may submit entries – so let’s all spread the word, whether in person or on social media!
