Mid Sussex youngsters who helped design a woodland seat for the Platinum Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II saw the finished result this week.

Ten-year-old Charlotte from Lindfield, six-year-old Eliza from Horsted Keynes and 12-year-old Maisie visited Burgess Hill Shed on Tuesday, December 20, after winning Mid Sussex District Council’s ‘Design a woodland seat’ competition.

Burgess Hill Shed had used the girls’ winning designs to create the beautiful bench and the youngsters received a commemorative Jubilee coin and a certificate from Mid Sussex District Council deputy chairman Phillip Coote.
