Billy Bob’s Ice Cream Parlour near Bolton Abbey is offering free ice cream throughout September to school children.

The “Back to School Bust a Gut Award” will be available to pupils who receive an award for effort or achievement during the first month of the new school term.

Children who bring home a school award can claim their treat by filling out an online form to receive a unique code, showing their certificate or trophy at the counter, and choosing an ice cream flavour with toppings.

The promotion is valid from the first day of school until 30th September.

Billy Bob’s has said the offer is aimed at recognising children’s hard work during the often-challenging first weeks of the academic year.

Parents also have the option to allow their child’s achievement to be shared on the business’s social media pages.

The scheme applies only to in-school achievements and not after-school clubs or participation certificates.

Billy Bob’s is located at Holton East between Skipton and Bolton Abbey at BD23 6EU.

Those who want to get involved can use the link here once students return to school.
