  • This competition is limited to one entry per child (a parent/guardian may submit more than one entry on behalf of different children).
  • If nobody enters, the prize will carry over to the next competition.
  • The winner will be announced on Facebook, so parents/guardians will need to check the Staffordshire Fire and Rescue Facebook page for updates.

Please note, we will never send a link asking participants to complete their personal details.
