Mon, Oct 21st 2024 at 9:00 am- Thu, Oct 31st 2024 - 6:00 pm

Shops and businesses in the streets of Horsforth were encouraged to dress up their windows for Halloween between October 21st and 31st

Kids Club House New Road Side - newcomer and 1st Prize Winner

Entries cost £5 per shop and there were prizes of £30, £20 and £10 once judging had taken place with a QR code to vote online. Maps showing all the participants were available for £1 from Marples, Town Street and Honey Pottery, New Road side. Coinciding with School Half Term it was hoped families would buy the maps and do the tour with all funds raised going to the Rob Burrow Motor Neurone Disease (MND) Appeal for the third year running. So far £1500 had been raised for this local charity. Picture shows this year's winner, a newcomer to the competition: KIds Club House New Road Side
