Mascot Design Competition
Design the Official APS Mascot!
We’re inviting children and young people to help us create the very first APS mascot. The winning design will become part of our charity’s identity and will be featured across our website, social media, posters and booklets.
This competition is open to all young people under 25, and no art experience is needed. You can enter on your own, work with friends to create a design together, or enter through your school.
Why Enter Our Mascot Competition?
This is a great opportunity to get creative and use your imagination. Whether you love drawing, want to try something new, or simply enjoy having fun with art, this competition is designed for everyone. It’s completely free to take part, and you don’t need any experience — just your ideas and enthusiasm.
Taking part also means becoming a part of APS’s story. The winning mascot will become a key part of our charity’s identity and will be seen on our website, social media, posters, booklets and future materials. You can enter on your own or team up with friends to design something together or enter through your school.
