Chesterfield schoolgirl wins contest to design card thanking key workers

A Chesterfield schoolgirl has won a competition to design a card thanking key workers.

Councillor Glenys Falconer, Chesterfield’s Mayor, launched the contest to find a special card she could send to Chesterfield Royal Hospital, local GP surgeries, care homes, emergency services, waste services and food retailers.

The winning entry was from an eight-year-old called Alicia, a year three pupil at Highfield Hall Primary School.
