MESSAGES of climate change drawn by youngsters in County Durham will be proudly displayed at two popular parks to encourage visitors to think about the environment.
To celebrate World Environment Day on Saturday, June 5, Durham County Council’s director for neighbourhoods and climate change, Alan Patrickson, joined pupils from Neville’s Cross Primary school to reveal the winners of last year’s The Big Draw competition.
In the world’s largest celebration of drawing, the teams at Hardwick and Wharton Park asked young visitors to draw and submit a design to raise awareness of climate change.
The winning design was to be turned into a flag and displayed at the parks.
