SHARPEN your crayons – Hampshire’s newest mascot needs some colour to bring him to life.

Hampshire’s Top Attractions (HTA) is challenging youngsters to enter a competition to design a colour scheme for ‘Harry Hampshire’.

The new mascot will be seen on the HTA website while youngsters will be able to read about his days out at some of the county’s most popular destinations such as Marwell Wildlife, Sir Harold Hillier Gardens and Winchester Science Centre.

The winning design will be used on the site and the winner will receive tickets to five attractions of their choice.

Paul Simmons, joint chair of HTA and marketing manager at Marwell, said: “He will be the new mascot for HTA and we hope visitors to the site will enjoy seeing what he has been up to by reading Harry’s new action-packed blog.”
