Guernsey residents are being urged to look out for blue buckets at Halloween as a scheme aimed at helping children with autism is being rolled out.

Those behind the campaign said those with autism could miss out on trick or treating as it could be a “very stressful time”.

The hope is islanders will see the blue buckets and understand the child carrying it has autism. The scheme is big in the United States of America and has been used in some parts of the UK for several years. Read more about the scheme here
