Chance for children to have fun with Christmas appeal

HERE'S a fun way for children to take part in our Make and Bake Christmas appeal '“ and create an image which will not only raise vital funds for Dreams Come True this year, but also spearhead the charity's work next Christmas.

It will be the 20th anniversary of Dreams Come True in 2008 and children up to the age of 16 are invited to take part in our competition to create a '˜dream' Christmas card.

The winning design will become the charity's official Christmas card next year, so the child who creates it will know his or her card will be popping through thousands of letterboxes all over Britain and beyond.
