YOUNGSTERS visiting a York attraction over the summer break can help construct a giant mural over the coming months to raise funds for the Alzheimer's Society.
Children passing through the doors of York Chocolate Story can turn nine-year-old Brooke Liddell's art work of a chocolate-filled River Ouse into a mammoth work of art using Smarties.
The schoolgirl won a citywide competition to create the artwork, which features the river and the historical Terry's factory and city walls in the background.

The picture will soon become a chocolate-lovers' dream when Smarties are used to colour-in the scaled-up piece.
Individual Smarties will be available for a small suggested donation of 10p.
Nikki Jacobs, general manager, said: "We loved her use of the eight Smarties colours and can’t wait to see her artwork scaled up and made entirely of Smarties!"
The mural will be on the ground floor of the attraction and in Kings Square - weather permitting - until the end of September.
