Easter Egg Hunt 2026
9th and 10th April 2026 - 10am to 3pm
HOP ON OVER TO NELL BANK.
Fresh air, woodland clues, muddy knees and a little chocolate treat at the end.
Spring's arrived, but all the eggs have vanished. Come and help us find them this Easter in our best-ever Easter Egg Hunt.
What's on
As well as the egg hunt itself, there's plenty to keep everyone busy — our Adventure Playground, Water Play and Toddler Trail are all open on the day. And our volunteer-run café will be serving hot drinks, sandwiches and home baking to keep everyone going.

Making a difference
NBCT is determined to provide all children with the opportunity to get outside and experience everything nature has to offer.
Regardless of how much you donate, it all goes towards making a child’s trip that much more memorable.
Donations always go where they’re needed most; removing financial barriers, ensuring the site is well maintained, or developing our programmes and resources to enhance children’s visits.
Donate your time
Whilst donations go a long way towards helping us improve Nell Bank, your time and skills are just as valuable. We welcome help at events, we offer practical volunteering days and value any professional business support you can offer.
Help us make the Nell Bank experience the best it can be, develop new skills and meet like-minded people along the way. If you’d like to get involved, get in touch!
Our Supporters
It’s not just individuals who’ve donated their time and money. We work with people from local environmental, arts, faith, sport, and community support groups to enhance the Nell Bank experience for everyone.
Our supporters have helped finance visits for children from disadvantaged schools, provided much-needed equipment, and coordinated teams of people to help us practically. Others engage in
sponsorship endeavours, completing physical feats to raise funds or organising joint charity events for their local communities.
Would you like to include a gift in your will?
A gift in your will to the Nell Bank Charitable Trust means we can continue to provide opportunities for children and families that would not otherwise visit the Centre or we can develop the site. Every penny of your gift, large or small, will help children access and benefit from the magical outdoor experiences at Nell Bank.
Whatever gift you’re considering, we are incredibly grateful for your support.
