🌸🐣 What an egg-cellent day! 🐣🌸

A huge thank you to everyone who joined the Easter Egg Hunt last week. It was wonderful to see so many happy faces enjoying the fun!

Special thanks to all the councillors and volunteers who helped set up and run the event, it wouldn’t have been possible without your hard work.

An extra big thank you to Cllr D. Field and J. Gates for generously donating the chocolate eggs. 🍫🥚

And of course, a big thank you to Easter Bunny for hopping by to spread joy and pose for photos. The children absolutely loved meeting him! 🐰

Here are a few pictures showing all the fun and energy from the day!
