THOUSANDS of people flocked into Lymm village for the annual duck race, which was blessed with sunshine on the Easter Bank Holiday Monday.

Organised by Lymm & District Roundtable, the event helps raise thousands of pounds for local good causes as plastic ducks, sponsored by villagers and local businesses, are poured into the lower dam.
The glorious Spring Bank Holiday weekend weather ensured a bumper turnout as youngsters enjoyed fairground rides in the village centre before and after the big event.
The results of the event have yet to be announced.
