VIDEO: Leicestershire makes the most of the snow

As the big freeze took hold at the weekend across Leicestershire lots of people made the most of the snow and took to the slopes across the county

Our photographers have been out and about capturing some people making the most of the snow on sledges, snowboards and even skis.

Mercury photographer Mike Sewell couldn't resist joining in the fun as this video shows - here he is sledging in Hollycroft Park in Hinckley.
