The t-shirt competition was held as part of the celebrations for Learning Disability week and was open to children and young people living in Doncaster who use the service.

Sarah McFarlane, RDaSH Children’s and Young People’s Mental Health Learning Disabilities Service Nurse, said: “We wanted to involve the young people in the design for our new team t-shirt.

"The designs put forward were of a very high standard which made our job of choosing one winner much more difficult. I want to say a big thank you to all the young people who entered the competition.”
