Entrants were aged 11 to 13 and Bexhill Lions youth chairman Eddie Bell was "impressed" by the amount of effort they put in.

The winning posters from each school advanced to the South East District level of the worldwide competition, and 12 year old India Landy from St Richards won that round of the competition.

Bexhill Lions Club awarded her a certificate and gift card voucher to the value of 60.

President Avril Ernshaw said: "It's obvious these young people have strong ideas of what peace means to them. I'm so proud we were able to provide them with the opportunity to share their vision with us."
