Eight-year-old Saskia Eccles from Diggle won the Treasure Hunt at last week’s Saddleworth Shop Local Festival in Uppermill. Organisers of the event dropped her prize off a few days later, and a surprised Saskia said: “It’ll be a struggle not to open it until Easter!”
The Treasure Hunt was one of several aspects of an event hailed as a success by organisers and visitors alike. More than 700 people attended the showcase for local shops and businesses, and £1,000 was raised for charity in the process.
