Mr Beenham is waste projects offer within the residual waste services department at Norfolk and wins an experience/activity voucher for his reindeer and sleigh-themed five-lined poem.
He told letsrecycle.com: “I’m surprised and delighted to have won first prize against some stiff competition, and it’s nice to see Norfolk gracing the letsrecycle headlines for winning reasons! I look forward to my wife telling me how we will use the lovely prize.”
