REINDEER

Words: Paul Chapman

The unhampered Christmas competition aimed to get as many people as possible out and about in Chesterfield town centre and using the independent businesses.

The unhampered founder members each had a star displayed in their windows, each featuring one letter from an eight-letter word ‘REINDEER’! People searched for them, unscrambled the letters and sent in their answers, to be in with a chance of winning £150 voucher or 2 x £50 vouchers, generously donated by St Modwen homes!

We did hear on the grapevine of people finding three E’s first, and being very confused… sorry about that!

We had loads of entries, which was exciting for us and good news for town, I’m sure, and on the 12 December, we drew the winners.

We were delighted to present the winnings to:

Pamela of Newbold who won the £150 voucher to spend at independent businesses – she choose to
