North West England District’s 2026 Christmas Card Competition
Calling all young artists! The North West England District is delighted to launch its annual Christmas Card Competition, giving children and young people from across the District the opportunity to have their artwork featured on this year’s official District Christmas card.
The winning design will become the front cover of the Christmas card sent by members of the District Senior Leadership Team to churches, partners and organisations across the District at Christmas this year.
The competition is open to all children and young people who are part of churches across the North West England District, including those involved in Messy Church, Forest Church, pupils at Methodist schools and church-affiliated uniformed organisations.
Whether it’s the Nativity, a winter scene, angels, stars or another creative interpretation of the Christmas story, we’re looking forward to seeing colourful, imaginative designs that capture the joy and hope of Christmas!
Entry forms can be downloaded from the District website (click here). Artwork submitted must be the child’s own work. We will not accept designs created using Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Completed entries can be submitted:
- By post: North West England District, c/o Central Methodist Church, Lune Street, Preston, PR1 2NL
- By email: admin@nwedmethodists.org.uk (if submitting a scanned copy, please keep the original artwork until the competition has concluded).
The closing date for entries is Monday 23rd November.
We can’t wait to see the wonderful creativity of children and young people from across our District and to share the winning design this Christmas!
