EASTER fun is being organised for Chester-le-Street youngsters.

Children will be able to join in crafts and activities such as painting eggs, decorating a bird bath and painting or drawing pictures.

The event is being held at Bullion Hall on South Approach, on Wednesday, April 7, between 10am and 3pm.

On April 14, an Easter egg hide-and-seek has been organised at Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust Washington Centre. There will also be a chance to feed the ducks and follow a bird trail.

The activities are suitable for children aged five to eight-years-old but all are welcome.
