Cracking Easter events for everyone

Looking for a festive way to celebrate Easter with the family? Here’s your guide to the most eggcellent events happening locally...

When you’ve completed your trail, you can collect your Rainforest Alliance chocolate egg or an allergen-free alternative. Yummy, fun times.

No booking is required, and the trail costs £3. stanwicklakes.org.uk
