People will have a chance to shop for gifts and show their support for local businesses at the Old Town Christmas Weekend on December 11 and 12.

The event will include a treasure hunt for kids under 12. They will have to find all 12 numbers hidden in the shop windows of George Street, the High Street, and Courthouse Street for a chance of winning the £25 prize.
