A "magical" free family adventure is coming to Richmond this Easter.  

From 5 to 21 April, Be Richmond, the Business Improvement District, will be hiding 1,000 mini teddy bears in shops across the town just waiting to be found and given a new home. 

If you find one, it's yours to keep - completely free - to start your very own adventure. 

As you explore the town and follow the Teddy Bear Hunt trail map, make sure to keep your eyes open for big teddy bears hidden in participating shops. 

Each bear will have a letter attached, and once you've found them all, you can unscramble the letters to reveal a secret word. 

When you've got the word, simply scan the QR code on your trail map, enter it on the Be Richmond website, and you'll be in the running to win a fabulous afternoon tea for a family of 4 at 144 on the Hill at Richmond Hill Hotel.

Join in the fun this Easter, for a fantastic, free activity for families, offering a great way to explore Richmond over the Easter Holidays. 

Get ready to start your bear hunt and save the date - the adventure begins on 5th April. 

Be Richmond is the Business Improvement District for Richmond town centre, dedicated to promoting the local business community, fostering economic growth, and enhancing the overall shopping experience. 

Download the trail map or find a physical map at the Visit Richmond kiosk at Richmond Station to start your adventure!
