The winner of our spot the hazard competition is presented with his prize by environmental health officers

The seven year old won a family ticket to Paradise Wildlife Park in Broxbourne for correctly spotting all the hazards on a picture of a home, such as children playing on the stairs and toys left on the floor that someone might trip over.

His entry was picked at random.

Chris Gascoine, Chief Environmental Health Officer, said: "The competition is a fun way to teach children about potential hazards in the home and promote home safety."
