Attention egg hunters!   The greedy Dinosaur has stomped into Otford nearly a whole week early - talk about impatient! 🦖 To stop him from gobbling up all the hidden Easter eggs, we’ve moved the hunt forward. That means the adventure is live NOW, instead of starting on April 9th! So, sharpen up your sleuthing skills, and get ready to track down those eggs before the Dinosaur does! 🏃‍♂️🥚 Good luck, and happy hunting! 🐣🔍✨

From 9th April until Easter Monday, you'll find eggs hidden all around Otford village in our EGGciting annual Easter Trail.  They will be in shop windows, in the High Street and the Parade and hidden along the footpaths linking the two.  Children under eleven will be able to report how many they've counted to the lovely people in Mille Fleurs, Ibbett Mosely (on the Parade), Fine & Country (near the pond) or at Yvonne's shop in Telston Lane - and claim a small prize. If you take part in this fun event and you find an egg, please leave it where you found it to ensure other children can also locate it. Good luck and have fun everyone!

A HUGE thank you to everyone who came out to support the 3rd Annual Otford Village Christmas Fayre yesterday, despite the challenging weather brought on by Storm Bert!While 14 other events in the county were cancelled, our incredible management team pulled off a remarkable feat—replanning the entire event to move every single stall indoors in less than 24 hours! We couldn’t have done it without the amazing support of Otford’s institutions and wonderful people. To name just a few: St Bart's Church, Little Treacles Nursery, Otford Parish Council, The Methodist Church, Otford Scouts, The Sea Cadets, The Bull Pub, Otford Village Shops, Otford Library, Captain Fantastic, Sevenoaks Players, Father Christmas and, of course, our fantastic team of 40 volunteers who worked tirelessly to ensure everything ran smoothly.  Many of our stallholders reported excellent sales, with some even setting record sales despite the weather. Your support means the world to these small businesses, many of who are struggling to make a living. Thank you again, Otford—you made this event a success, and we are so grateful for your community spirit! We certainly showed Bert that the show goes on in Otford whatever the weather throws at us!https://vimeo.com/1033823257?share=copy
