Friday is the last day for you to vote in this year’s Kids Galore competition. We’ve printed around 1,000 pictures over nine weeks and already we’ve counted thousands of votes and this year it’s going to be a very close competition.

If you haven’t sent yours in or want to add a few more to your child’s total, then you have until 5pm on Friday to bring your entries to our offices - don’t post them as they won’t get here in time!

Your child could win a share of the £3,250 prize pot put up by sponsors Hempstead Valley Shopping Centre.

People who vote can also win themselves a great prize – a trip in a hot air balloon for two with Kent Ballooning.

Just send in your votes and we will draw the winner.

The three children who get the most votes in each category will be invited to a presentation at the shopping centre to find out who has won.

The category winners and the overall winner will be decided by a panel of judges from the Medway Messenger and Hempstead Valley Shopping Centre.

So hurry and buy as many copies as you can to ensure your little darling is one of our winners!
