The Great Dunstable Scavenger Hunt is coming to an end and there is only 11 left to find! 🕵️‍♂️✨ To celebrate 1 year of the Dunstable Community Lottery, we’ve hidden Golden Envelopes across the town! Each one contains a code for a "free spin" with a chance to win up anything from £25 to £25,000! 💰

📍 As of (Wednesday 27 May) we’ve hidden 11 envelopes in shops across the town and with traders on The Square for you to find in Dunstable. Can you solve the riddles and find the envelopes before someone else beats you to it?

🐶 Envelope 1: A place in the middle of the row for pampered pups to go. *FOUND*

🎸 Envelope 2: I’m hanging out with some instruments, in a sea of silver strings and polished wood. *FOUND*

🏡 Envelope 3: An estate agent with a turquoise logo.

🧁 Envelope 4: A cake shop near a famous cross.

🖼️ Envelope 5: Don’t just admire the art on display, look at the frame where the gold hides away. *FOUND*

❤️ Envelope 6: A second hand furniture shop that supports the heart.

🍗 Envelope 7: On The Square where the grill master stands, with authentic Jamaican flavours and jerk chicken in hand.

🥔 Envelope 8: You’ll find me on The Square hiding where the tinfoil gleams, a golden envelope full of spud-loving dreams. *FOUND*

🫓 Envelope 9: Find the sweetest slice of Greece on High Street.

🇵🇱 Envelope 10: Seek out the taste of Warsaw on the High Street. The name of the shop is just a tiny speck of time, but the treasures inside are grand. *FOUND*

☕ Envelope 11: A café at the crossroads selling yummy cakes and coffee.

When you have your envelope, all you have to do is visit: https://www.dunstablecommunitylottery.co.uk/claim and enter the code on the piece of paper inside the envelope to be entered into the draw. Good luck.

*First-come basis, ask for the envelope from the stall/shop owners*
