THE winner of the February half-term Lego adventure trail has been announced and presented with a voucher worth £100.
As previously reported, the Andover Block Hunt, organised by the Andover Business Improvement District (BID), turned the town centre into a vibrant Lego-brick road of creativity, discovery, and family fun.
Twenty businesses took part in the Andover Block Hunt, transforming their shop windows into colourful and characterful visions of Lego loveliness.
Each display featured Lego characters representing well-known local business figures, adding a delightful twist to the traditional scavenger hunt.

By following the trail, participants were able to complete their entry forms to be included in the grand finale of a prize draw - with the prize being a £100 voucher to be spent in participating town centre businesses.
The winning entry form was picked at random, with 12-year-old Zachary Cook coming out on top and winning the £100 voucher.
Zachary and his mother Mel, who live in Andover, were presented with the vouchers of choice by Katie Tricker from the Andover BID.

Mel said: "Zachary did the trail with his dad during the February half term and had a really good time making his way around all the businesses in the town and mapping out the displays in each shop.
"Zachary has never won anything like this before so safe to say when he found out he was the winner he was over the moon! We've done a few similar trails beforehand and they're always good fun, and we plan to spend the vouchers at independent stores in the town centre."
Katie said: “It’s really lovely to meet Zachary and Mel and give them the vouchers. People loved the trail and we’re thrilled that so many people took part.
"We love bringing our community together with these events and businesses and look forward to putting on many more in the future, with our Easter trail just around the corner, a Pride trail in June and the carnival in July, there is lots to look forward to."
One of the businesses that took part was Collecteebles in the Chantry Centre.
Owner CJ Tee said: “We were really happy to take part in the trail, and it was a great turnout from residents to come out and having fun.
"We're very glad to see another positive event in the town and thrilled Zachary has chosen a Collecteebles voucher too!"
