YOUNG ones and their families will be taking part in a fun-filled Easter trail in Reading town centre over the Spring holidays.
Reading Business Improvement District (Reading BID)’s free initiative will see children scour shop windows to find hidden Easter eggs in an attempt to win a festive prize.
A total of 12 businesses are participating in the trail, which will run from April 1-10, with maps available to collect from The Oracle’s customer service desk or to download from Visit Reading’s website.
Alexa Volker, manager of Reading BID, says: “We’re so excited to be bringing this new trail to Reading town centre over the Easter holidays. We are lucky to have so many brilliant businesses within Reading and I’m grateful to those who are supporting us by being part of this trail.
“At a time where the cost of living remains a challenge for many families, we hope this Easter trail will provide a fun, free activity to do over the Easter holidays and gives people another reason to visit Reading this Spring.”
Starting from The Oracle, the trail is fully walkable for the whole family, taking hunters across the town centre.
Participants will need to write or draw the Easter eggs they find along the way on the corresponding eggs on their maps.
Once all 12 have been identified, completed maps can be taken to the last stop on the trail to claim a special Easter treat.
Reading BID is a geographical area of businesses within the town centre which pay a levy to fund additional services to make the town a better place to live, work and visit.
