One of Scotland’s largest energy firms is hoping to trace a boy who returned a 10p gift shop souvenir by post after realising his mum had not paid for it.
The boy, known only as Daniel, sent a letter to Whitelee Windfarm in East Renfrewshire apologising for his mistake.
Now Scottish Power have launched a search to find him and send a gesture of thanks for his honesty.
In the letter, Daniel said: “Dear Sir/Madam, I was in the shop and picked up the the enclosed thinking that my mum had paid for it. Unfortunately she had not so I am returning the item.”
Whitelee Windfarm visitor centre manager, Ian Parkinson told the BBC: “We’re often contacted by people wishing to find out more about the UK’s biggest windfarm, but it’s not often we receive mail like this.
“I’d certainly like to praise this very honest young boy for admitting his mistake, and for his sincerity in his actions.
“It’s certainly heart-warming to think that someone would go to such lengths to return an item of very small value to us.
“Unfortunately we don’t have Daniel’s return address to send him back our own gesture of thanks, but I do hope he gets touch or visits us again with his mum.”
