PEOPLE had a helping hand with planning their holidays on Saturday, thanks to Gray Travel.

The company held its first ever travel exhibition at Northwich Memorial Hall.

Manager of the Northwich branch Eileen Kelsall said: "We used to do in-store promotions with different operators and we thought it would be a good idea to get them all together.

"It was really popular and gave people all sorts of ideas about where to go and things like hoteliers and car hire."

The competition for a free holiday to Florida, which has been featured in the Northwich Guardian, will be drawn this week.
