Skegness’ Mayor and Mayoress are the first couple to place a Love Lock on the pier as part of a new attraction for the town.

Coun Adrian Findley and Coun Sarah Staples won their own Love Lock from a crane machine and placed it on the giant Heart of Skegness while officially declaring the new attraction open.

A percentage of the proceeds from every Love Lock won – and there is a guaranteed winner every time – will go towards funding defibrillators in Skegness.
