The story
"We just thought someone had left it there, you know when somebody sits down and then forgets they've left their bag or something there. And I told my mum to have a look at it and we had a look and it said "A random act of kindness for Kegworth. I hope you enjoy – play it forward." So we opened it and it was a bunch of chocolates. It's just really nice for somebody to do that."
Lorrae Sunley - a resident of Kegworth, UK
