On an ordinary day, on an ordinary shopping trip, extra ordinary things happen…

The Children's Trail is a FREE FAMILY activity in the centre of our community. It starts at the Library and takes about an hour to complete.

Pick up a free activity map and pencil from the Leighton Buzzard Library (Lake Street 0300 300 8059) or the White House (Hockliffe Street 01525 631920)*. Win a goodie bag prize by posting photos of you and yours on the Trail to this facebook page. Once you've completed the Trail collect your art card (one of the rewards) and share your imagination with the Library wall!
