Unleash your creativity with Derbion’s festive charity design competition

Derbion has announced the launch of its Christmas charity design competition, inviting local creatives of all ages to submit their best festive masterpiece for the chance to be featured on Derbion’s brand new charity gift card wallet card during the festive season.

The free competition, now open to submissions, runs until Sunday, 27 October. All are encouraged to unleash their creativity and submit a unique design for the first-ever charity Derbion gift card wallet that captures the spirit of Derbion, Derby, or Derbyshire during the festive period.

To enter, participants can download a template from the Derbio website and submit their design via email. Throughout the competition, physical templates can also be collected and handed in at Customer Services on Level 1.

Derbion’s festive gift card wallets will be available to purchase in-centre from Monday, 11 November, for £1 each, plus whatever you wish to add to the gift card. 100% of the proceeds from the gift card wallet will go to the centre’s charity partner of the year, Umbrella - a local children and young people’s charity.

The winning artist will also receive a £100 Derbion gift card to spend in the centre.

Beth McDonald, Managing Director of Derbion, commented: ”We’re always looking for ways to engage our community, and our Christmas design competition is an excellent opportunity for artists of all ages to express their creativity – and help us raise vital funds for our charity of the year Umbrella throughout the festive period.

“The opportunity is open to everyone, no matter their age and creative ability, and we’re excited to see how locals capture the spirit of Christmas as part of their illustrations.

“We look forward to receiving entries over the next two weeks and revealing the winning design soon!”
