Follow the Easter Trail from the Turning Circle on the Meltham Greenway to St James’ Church at Meltham Mills. Refreshed for 2026, follow the clues along the way to learn the Easter story told through the eyes of those who were there! On completion, there’s a free Easter egg to the first 100 children to complete the trail. There’ll be refreshments at St James’ Church where the Easter eggs can be collected. This is a really enjoyable community event and we hope you can come along – it’s perfect for all the family especially those with children in Primary schools.

ALL WELCOME!
