Participating families are invited to join the egg hunt
s at National Trust and National Trust for Scotland properties across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. For the 10th year running Cadbury will be providing properties with the support to activate their own personalised egg hunt themes, linking back to each of the properties unique stories. Themes range from knights tracking down dragon eggs to a 1950s vintage-style Easter egg hunt, all leading to a Cadbury treat as a reward at the end.
