To add a little colour to the nation’s lockdown, Nimble Media – ‘The Home of the Ridiculously Creative’ – launched a drawing competition, affectionately titled ‘CuddleCards’.
In this time when many families and friends are separated, receiving a colourful postcard is a great way to keep in touch and send some virtual hugs to those you can’t be with. We invited budding artists of all ages to pick up their pens, paints and other arty materials and design an A5 postcard that they would like to send to their parents, grandparents, friends and other family members. As a bonus, the winners received 20 A5 Postcards, professionally printed with their design to send to their loved ones!
The response was fabulous, and made judging so difficult! We ended up with 5 winners!
This scheme has now been adopted and rolled out by our friends at Women in Rail, who have run the competition across 6 of their regional groups!
