TACT Xmas card competition judged by Coronation Street cast

Coronation Street actors Georgia Taylor, Millie Gibson and Charlie de Melo judged the winners for this year’s TACT Xmas card competition.

TACT children and young people submitted their designs, with the cast choosing one winner from each area.

Georgia Taylor said: “Such a privilege and a joy to judge all the beautiful Christmas cards designed by TACT foster children and young people for their annual competition! We were so impressed with all of them and found it really difficult to choose our winners. They were all fantastically festive. Congratulations to everyone who took part. You’re all ace!”

TACT CEO, Andy Elvin, has been working with Coronation Street as a Script Advisor to assist with their fostering storyline.

Andy said: “It is admirable that Corrie have tried to be as accurate as possible within the bounds of things being presented for dramatic effect. Many other TV shows do not even make the effort to understand the issues faced by children in care and the reality of the child protection and care systems.”
