Call for Designs in Willenhall Flag Competition
Willenhall is set to have its very own community flag and budding artists and those with a
sense of civic pride are being encouraged to submit designs.
The flag will be officially registered with the Flag Institute, as community website Willenhall
Ay We.co.uk and locally based shopping giant Poundland have teamed up to launch a public
competition.
After seeing the recent patriotic display of the Black Country flag in readiness for Black
Country Day on July 14th
Willenhall Ay We.co.uk were inspired to fly the flag for the town.
Poundland jumped at the chance to sponsor the competition and pay for the manufacture
of the winning design, whilst the registration of the design itself with the Flag Institute is
free.
A town flag will serve as a symbol for the community to rally around, raise awareness and
visibility of Willenhall further afield as well as promoting one of the many community
heritages that form the patchwork of national identity.

Hello, We are wondering if we could pick your brains again on running a flag competition. Did you have a gallery online or an exhibition of all the entrants? If not why and were you asked to see the them? Many thanks for your continued support. Julie
Firstly we had a competition that was open to all and then a panel of judges to shortlist the entries – they then went to the public vote via our website, facebook page and local voting stations.
Please email if you require any further info.
Thanks
