An Easter themed event in a local park will raise money to support borough youngsters..
Visitors to Woodley’s Woodford Park will be able to take part in an animal hunt, to raise money for First Days Children’s Charity.
Families wanting to join the trail, can pick up an activity sheet to help them find the animals hidden around the park.
Once discovered, these will reveal a secret Easter-themed word, and children will be able to receive a sweet treat.
The event has been organised by First Days Children’s Charity, Woodley Town Council, The Oakwood Centre and Woodford Leisure Centre.
First Days thanks these organisations for their support.
The charity aims to give choice, restore dignity and empower families who are living with a low income or are experiencing financial hardship.
They offer peer support and one to one coaching to parents, whilst providing everyday essentials for children who need them.
They also distribute school uniforms, new baby essentials, beds and bedding, travel equipment, toiletries, safety items, furniture, toys and books.
The Easter animal hunt can be enjoyed until Sunday, April 16.
Activity sheets can be picked up from Woodford Park Leisure Centre or Woodley Town Council offices in the Oakwood Centre.
A £2 donation is suggested.
