One Preston woman tries her luck at cracking the safe code

Hundreds of Prestonians were unable to break a code on Saturday and win thousands of pounds.

Mark Whittle from Preston BID said: “Unfortunately no one was able to bag the prize, we might have to bring it back sometime next year.

“It was a nice happy day though with lovely people and almost of the city centre prizes were won.”
