Record Turnout for Easter Egg Trail at Sandringham

After an absence of 2 years caused by covid restrictions, the Priory Rotary club were able to bring back their annual Easter Egg Trail at Sandringham on Saturday, raising money for the East Anglian Air Ambulance. Blessed with good weather, families turned up in their hundreds, with long queues atthe check in points before setting off.

The trail started at the grizzly bear outside the newly extended childrens’ play area. From there, it wound its way through the woods, where participants had to find the 18 clues hidden along the way, leading them back to the finish where they collected their chocolate eggs generously donated byKinnertons Chocolates in Fakenham.

In addition to the trail, Rotary ran a candyfloss stall and the East Anglian Air Ambulance held a tombola. A grand total of just over £4,500 was raised, well in excess of previous years. Zoe Harris,Community Fundraiser at East Anglian Air Ambulance said “We are delighted that the Easter Trail returned to Sandringham this year to be bigger and better than ever before, especially after two years away. With every mission costing an average of £3,500, our supporters across the region make the difference so that our crew can continue to deliver the pre-hospital care at the scene of an incident. Thank you to King’s Lynn Priory Rotary who, as always been supportive of the East Anglian Air Ambulance, and to the many volunteers who have given up so much time to run this event.”
