Heidi collects her prize

The mystery of who was inside the Unicorn that brought smiles to the faces of hundreds of Welshpool residents was revealed by MyWelshpool last week and the first prize of £100 vouchers has been presented.

Today local businesswoman Vicky Bowen who turned out to be inside the giant Unicorn presented the prize to the first name out of the hat to identify her in conjunction with MyWelshpool.

Vicky who runs Health Matters Education and Busy Feet handed the vouchers to Heidi Gannon this morning in a socially distanced presentation..

Vicky persuaded local businesses to match her £100 donation with match funding and will be presenting £200 worth of vouchers to our lucky winners.
