Congratulations to Meriel, Year 7, who was recently announced as the winner in the 8-14 year category of Blackpool Teaching Hospitals Design a poster competition marking the 75th birthday of the service’s founding in July.
The competition was open to all children aged up to 14 years living in Blackpool, Fylde and Wyre, Meriel being inspired by her mum and dad who work in Blackpool Teaching Hosipitals’ community services.
Her drawing, which features bunting of inspirational words particularly stood out to judge Diane Booth, Head of Children’s Community Services, “Meriel’s drawing reflects lots of positive words about the NHS and resonated with me personally as we strive to live by these values every day.”
