Age UK Dacorum, Rectory Lane Cemetery Berkhamsted and Lizzie Martell Illustration have come together to bring you 'Easter Discovery Trail' a family fun event on Saturday 16th April 2022.

Children will follow the Easter Egg Trail using clue cards donated and specially illustrated by Lizzie Martell, a watercolour artist & illustrator who lives in Boxmoor.  On completion, they will be rewarded with a chocolate Easter egg and also have a fun black and white illustration to take home and colour in as a memento.

This is an event for all the family -  there will be refreshments available to purchase and guides on hand to answer all your questions and beautiful seats to rest on throughout the space.

Tickets: £3 in advance (online) or £6 on the day. Each ticket purchase buys one Trail clue card, which entitles the clue card holder to a chocolate Easter egg on completion of the trail.

Tickets can be bought online here (booking fees applies) : tickets.mp/s/ageukdacorum

There is no limit to how many people can attend. Only Blue Badge parking is available within the Cemetery, but town car parks are within 5 minutes’ walking distance of the entrance on Rectory Lane, just off the High Street.

Boxmoor Good Neighbours would like to support Lizzie Martell who lives in Boxmoor.

'I am known for my happy colours and characterful animals and I love to design and illustrate to bring joy to little children. I am inspired by the magic of the natural world and the ever-increasing wonder of my little daughter, who is a constant source of inspiration to me!

I particularly enjoy bringing personalities to life in my own unique style through my portraits which have become very popular. Browse my range of art prints and greeting cards via my Shop'
