Crowds braved the cold weather to take part in a New Year tradition unique to an East Yorkshire town.
Scrambling, believed to have been held annually in Driffield town centre for more than 200 years, sees the town’s children visit shops in the high street where shopkeepers throw out sweets and let the children scramble for them.
Michelle Flake, town development officer at Driffield Town Council, said there was a “great turnout” for Friday’s event, with at least 50 children and 53 businesses taking part.
She added: “The kids left with very heavy bags.”
