What better way to celebrate than to take part in one of the many Covid-safe Easter events happening across Northamptonshire from today through to next week?
There is something for everyone here from beautifully prepared Easter trails to egg hunts, including one exclusively for adults where you can win a variety of boozy prizes - sign me up!
