It was entered by more than a dozen schools across the constituency, from Cudworth to Darfield and Hoyland.

Hundreds of entries were considered by Stephanie and a judging panel including the Mayor of Barnsley Coun Pauline Markham, and local organisations.

The card bearing Sunny’s design has been sent out in Westminster and to thousands of local people and groups in Barnsley.
