ELLIS HAYES had plenty to smile about when he won a Christmas card competition organised by Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.

The 10-year-old was a day patient on Peter Pan children’s ward when he came up with five designs, including his winning illustration, Mr Snowman.

Mr Snowman was distributed to 400 people, including hospital volunteers, trust members and partners, while a personal copy has pride of place in the family’s home in Sidney Close, Uxbridge.
