The winner and two runners-up will also win a visit to meet the police dogs!

Children are encouraged to be as creative as they like and include ‘Happy Christmas from Devon and Cornwall Police’ in their design.

Entries must be received by midnight on Sunday, December 3.  Please include the entrant’s name, age, school, a contact telephone number and an email address.

 Entries can be sent to: [email protected] (as a JPEG or PDF file of up to 5MB in size) or to Corporate Communications, Devon and Cornwall Police Headquarters, Middlemoor, Exeter, EX2 7HQ.

The winning design will be announced on the force’s social media pages and turned into the 2017 digital Christmas card.
