Prize up for grabs as firms urged to join in hospital charity 's festive fun

Businesses are being encouraged to join in the festive fun - and be in with a chance to win prizes as part of Birmingham Community Healthcare Charity 's Winter Woollies Week.

Winter Woollies Week takes place from 3 to 10 December.

All you need to do to participate is wear your best jolly jumpers, festive frocks and seasonal socks and send in a picture.

The charity wants individual photos - one entry per person - to spread cheer across Birmingham.

For marketing materials please contact the charity team. You can also download BCHC 's festive activity pack full of ideas and photo props.

Submit your entry to the competition by posting on Twitter with the hashtags #BCHCCharity and #WinterWoolliesWeek or email [email protected]

The prize for the best entry is a Winter Wonderland prize pack containing Love2Shop vouchers, winter treats and Nova goodies.

BCHC Charity Fundraising assistant Stacey Taylor said: “The past 2 years have been incredibly challenging for everyone, and we feel that it 's more important than ever to take time to have fun where we can, especially during the colder winter months. I absolutely love a good festive jumper and am so excited to see everyone 's wonderful wintery outfits, though I think I 'll have my work cut out for me in judging the Winter Woollies Week winner! ”

Although this competition is free to enter, the charity is encouraging individuals to take a look at its website here to see how its is making a difference for patients of all ages this winter.

There is also the chance to donate to the Spread the Sparkle JustGiving page here.

The competition will close at midnight on Friday 10 December, and the winner will be announced on Monday 13 December via the Trust Twitter account: @bhamcommunity.
