A Sandbach shop is celebrating after winning the town's annual best dressed window competition – just a month after opening.

Sandbach Party Supplies in Welles Street is used to making celebrations go with a swing for others.

But the colourful business, which only opened its town centre premises a month ago, is this week celebrating itself.

Judy Henson (32) and Stacey Rowley (33) launched the business 14 months ago after Judy lost her job with a sports company in Manchester during COVID.

Both had always loved giving children's parties and helping others organise and run parties due to the "feel-good" factor parties provide.

Their eye-catching Nutcracker window display with snow and giant bauble baubles, kindly supplied by Horizon Event Hire, ticked all the boxes with judges at the town's late-night shopping event.

Mayor Councillor Geraint Price Jones who judged the competition said: "I was impressed with the originality of the display which stood out despite the high standards set by the other shops in Sandbach."
