A mystery Good Samaritan has been bringing a little bit of happiness to the people of Hinckley by leaving sweet treats on car windshields this month.
The generosity has occurred in the run up to Kindness Day UK on Friday(NOV13).
‘Wispas’ of the unknown individual have been shared on Facebook with the chocolate spreader striking at least twice in the last week.
The random acts of kindness appear not so random with a bar of Dairy Milk chocolate found on a car on Tuesday last week, subsequently followed by a bar of Galaxy last Friday morning.
It seems likely that more lucky confectionary beneficiaries may be out there.

The ‘Kinder’-hearted soul left both bars with hand-written notes explaining they wanted to spread happiness during “these hard times”.
Hinckley resident Christine was thrilled to discover the out-of-this-world treat on her car last Friday and shared her find online hoping the person would see her appreciation.
“It was such a lovely thing to do and I really was thankful for it,” she said.
In an online post, the recipient of the Dairy Milk described the ‘Boost’ it had given them ahead of the then looming national lockdown.
“I will be doing the same for someone else,” they wrote.
With ongoing tensions due to the coronavirus pandemic, the need for community kindness is needed more than ever.
Kindness UK encourages people to get involved by doing their own random act of kindness for others and last year handed out more than 10,000 free chocolate bars at London Train Stations.
It is not known if the Hinckley’s Willy Wonka is involved with the group, with some people online suggesting the chocolate spreader has been at large for many months.
Whatever the case, they have certainly brought a smile to residents of Hinckley during November.
