A COMPETITION to highlight the damage caused by bullying has been won by a Year 7 pupil.

Laura Marsh, 12, of Trinity School, Erith Road, Belvedere, has been picked as the regional winner in the Make a Difference campaign.

Developed in association with children's charity Childline, schools were invited to take part in a competition to design a poster highlighting the anti-bullying message.

Each poster had to include the Childline number and judges were specifically looking for striking visuals.

Prizes were donated by Panasonic and included a personal CD player for each regional winner.
