Kendal student's festive design wows mayor
1:46pm Wednesday 1st October 2008
A COLOURFUL Christmas card designed by a teenager from Kendal will soon be dropping on doormats across the South Lakes.
As part of her endeavour to get young people more involved in local government and Kendal itself, the town mayor, Coun Clare Feeney-Johnson, invited pupils at Sandgate School to put forward designs for the town council’s official Christmas card.
The winning entry was by fourteen-year-old Keiran Brown, who impressed Ms Feeney-Johnson with his use of colour and bold camel design.
Cards featuring Keiran’s design will be sent out in early December.
