Last Saturday was prize giving day for the lucky winners of Boundary Road’s Easter egg hunt. Alex Mackay, of Mishon Mackay, and Sarah Dare of How Dare She, handed out the chocolate eggs to the delighted winners who were excited about their eggs-tra Easter windfall.

Sarah said: “The How Dare She event was a great success as we had over 160 people doing the Egg Hunt. The retailers involved responded really well with lots of positive feedback from them and they were delighted with the footfall they had throughout the hunt.

“It’s really great to hear that the shops on Boundary Road and their staff are already talking about doing another event.

“Thank you so much to all the independent retailers, to Mishon Mackay and to Hyde, plus all the Easter Egg hunters for making this event such a great success.”

Melinda Clarke (mother, egg hunter and, most importantly, local shopper) commented: “My daughter and I really enjoyed the trail and discovered some new shops.”

Jay Melton-Ball, branch director of Mishon Mackay’s Portslade office, said: “I’d like to say thank you to Sarah as we think she planned the event extremely well. The fact that Sarah dressed up as an Easter bunny, giving out chocolate up and down the road, on the Saturday prior to launching the hunt, really created talkability. “ Alex Mackay of Mishon Mackay added “As a company we are really keen to get involved in grass roots, community events such as these as they provide a fun, feel good factor to the community and they help to promote local businesses and the local area.”
