A total of 66 paintings were entered in the competition and £35 given towards church restoration work. As in previous years, the standard of the entries was very high and the competition judges were given a difficult task.
May we thank Bradworthy Social Club and Bradworthy Local Agenda 21 Group for each donating the sum of £37.50 to enable us to purchase the prizes. We would also like to thank all the young artists who took part in the competition and express our appreciation to the Headmaster and staff of the County Primary School for their active participation in staging the event.
