​AND the winners are...

Today we are proud to announce which of your bundles of joy have been named the champions of the Grimsby Telegraph’s Baby And Toddler Of The Year Competition.

Emily Gale, 14-months, not only won her age category for babies aged 10 to 18 months, she won overall, meaning her parents have a staggering £1,500 to spend on her.

Emily of Springbank Road in Grimsby also won a Grimsby Telegraph Baby And Toddler Of The Year trophy and her family will receive a print of her winning photograph.

Proud mum Sam Reid, 22, who works as receptionist at Grimsby Hospital said she was “so excited and proud” when she was told Emily had won.

She said: “We just couldn’t believe it, I rang my mum up and she couldn’t either.

“I saw the competition advertised and thought we would be in with as good a chance as anyone else.

“Her trophy will take pride of place on the mantle piece so everyone can see it, and the money will go in her bank account until she needs something.”
