A FREE family pass is up for grabs at this year’s Gillingham and Shaftesbury Show.

Organisers are asking people across the Blackmore Vale region to find their flock of fluffy toy sheep that can be spotted in eight farm shops in Dorset, Somerset and Wiltshire.

The wayward flock can be rounded up within farm shops in a 30-mile radius of the Turnpike Showground in Motcombe, where the Gillingham and Shaftesbury Show takes place.

Organisers said: “Find a sheep, scan the QR code on the ear tag for a chance to win one of four single-day family passes, which will entitle you to entry to the show and the VIP members area.
