A RETAILER handed out over 300 Easter eggs to young fans at an Accrington Stanley match.

Studio, the Accrington based online value retailer, brought the Easter cheer to Accrington Stanley's WHAM Stadium on Good Friday, handing out the Easter eggs to under 12's.

As sponsors of the Eric Whalley family stand, Studio invited all children who received a brand new Accrington Stanley shirt at October's big shirt giveaway back to the WHAM Stadium, this time to receive a free egg.

Ahead of the League One clash both the Studio team and the Studio Easter Bunny handed out the eggs to young Stanley and Burton Albion fans.

HR Manager at Studio Retail, Collette King said: "What a wonderful day it has been - to see so many children wearing their Accrington Stanley shirts was a sight to behold.

"As sponsors of the Eric Whalley family stand, we are eager to give back to our young people and by handing out these Easter eggs, we hope we have provided a bit of Easter cheer to the children of Hyndburn."

Assistant Manager at Accrington Stanley, Jimmy Bell added: "It was absolutely fantastic to see all the children receiving their Easter eggs and we can't thank Studio enough for their kind contribution.”
