THE Mayor of High Wycombe was turned into a zombie last week.

But don’t worry, the zombie apocalypse has not hit Bucks, Mayor Trevor Snaith was transformed into the undead by Kitsch Me Kwik and Retro Beauty to ‘trick or treat’ businesses on Halloween night.

Cllr Snaith scared town businesses into handing over prizes, donations and their support for the Mayor’s Appeal charity fund - which this year is supporting Child Bereavement UK and the One Can Trust.

He said: “It was quite funny because we went in to the shops etc and I said ‘I’m the Mayor’, they all replied ‘are you really?’

“They didn’t expect the mayor of the town to be dressed up but they all said it was great and the costumes went down extremely well.

“Juliet [Hamilton] from Kitsch Me Kwik and Emma [Bell] were even scaring the adults, they did a really good job with the outfits and the support we received from the businesses was really good.”
