Chocolate egg ‘mountain’ needs to be given away
A Scottish charity is trying to give away thousands of chocolate eggs after lockdown forced it to cancel its Easter egg hunts. The National Trust for Scotland had taken delivery of 30,000 eggs by mid-March. With a use-by-date of July, the clock is now ticking for the operation to give them all away. About half of the stockpile has already gone to hospitals, food banks and community groups.
