TWO East Lancashire hotels will take part in a £500,000 ‘giveaway’.

Guests at The Oaks Hotel in Colne Road, Reedley and The Higher Trapp Hotel in Trapp Lane, Simonstone, could win the six-figure sum as part of a competition by owners Lavender Hotels.

Simon Doughty, operations manager at the chain will visit the Reedley site at 10.15am today and the Simonstone venue at 11am for the Money Drop stunt.
