Legoland prize up for grabs in Maidenhead MP's 2025 Christmas Card competition

Entrants of this year’s Christmas card competition could be in with a chance of winning a trip to Legoland Windsor.

Maidenhead’s MP Josh Reynolds is inviting primary school pupils in the area to come up with a design for his official Christmas card.

The closing date for entries is Tuesday, November 4, and the prize for this year’s winning entry will be a day out at Legoland for five people.

The Advertiser teamed up with Maidenhead’s former MP Theresa May more than 20 years ago to host a competition asking school pupils to design a card to be sent out to politicians, community figures and dignitaries across the world.

The competition has taken place every year since, and following his election last year, Mr Reynolds has continued the tradition.

Pupils aged 11 and under, who live in the Maidenhead constituency, are being asked to create a design, following the theme of ‘Christmas in Maidenhead’.

The suggested size for the designs is A5, and they need to be bright and bold, and preferably done using crayons, paint and felt tips, as

coloured pencils do not reproduce well when printed.

Two-dimensional designs are preferred as materials such as cotton wool and glitter do not work when printed.

Mr Reynolds will choose the winning entry and the runners-up.

The winning entry will be printed and sent across Maidenhead and beyond.

Entries need to have the full name, age and school or organisation (such as brownie or cub pack) of the entrant as well as the parent’s name, phone number and address.

The competition entries should be sent to Maidenhead Advertiser, 48 Bell Street, Maidenhead, Berkshire, SL6 1HX.

Judging will take place soon after the closing date.
