Maps have arrived ready for the our trail to start this Monday. Pick up yours frpm Dobcross Village Store, Limekiln Cafe and The Swan Inn Dobcross

The trail runs from Monday 17th August to Wednesday 2nd September and this year’s theme is Favourite Children’s Storybooks. 📚✨

The village will be transformed into a magical trail of fairy gardens, each inspired by a much-loved children’s story. Families can pick up a trail map and then explore Dobcross, finding the different gardens and discovering which storybook each one represents.

It’s designed to be a fun, low-cost activity for families to enjoy during the summer holidays, while also raising money for Friends of Dobcross School (FODS). This year we’re hoping to raise £10,000 towards a fantastic new school playground, so every ticket makes a difference. 💚
