The chocolate bars were created in honour of the much-loved author, whose stories have inspired generations of children and adults. One lucky bar contained a Golden Ticket – with the finder set to win a £30 National Book Token.

Stowe Mount resident Rae Fry, who volunteered to help hand out the chocolate bars, said: “It was lovely to meet the Lichfield community, and I was enthusiastic to talk about the great author Rohld Dahl and explain the exciting chance to win the Golden Ticket!”

Lifestyle Manager, Jayne Yeats, accompanied Rae and added: “Roald Dahl Day gave us the perfect opportunity to do something a little bit different whilst also getting to know our community even better.

“We hope the Golden Ticket brings a smile to someone’s face, inspires them to pick up a new book and enjoy the world of stories that Roald Dahl loved so much.”
