Trio help birthday celebration

Three youngsters have helped design a special birthday card to celebrate Springfields Shopping Outlet’s 20th anniversary of opening.
The shopping centre held a Design A Card competition which provided judges with a difficult decision.
In first place was Austin Clarke (10), from Surfleet, whose winning design earned himself a Nintendo Switch gaming bundle.
Freddie Ford (11), from Spalding, was in second place and was rewarded with a £25 gift card for Springfields.
In third was Charlie Walford (5), from Wisbech who was presented with a Cadbury’s chocolate hamper.
Springfields retail director Simon Stone said: “It’s has been a pleasure viewing so many fantastic entries for this competition, and we are delighted that so many talented children have been inspired to create the most wonderful cards.
“We would like to thank everyone that entered and wished Springfields a happy birthday, as we look forward to celebrating our 20th year among the East of England’s leading shopping and leisure destinations.”
