Hockley Mum, Joanne launches the reading trail

"If you don't like to read, you haven't found the right book" JK Rowling - We are delighted to help Joanne Randall from Just Love Reading to launch her Hockley Reading Trail community project which will see youngsters walk around the Village shopping area searching for random letters in various shop windows to solve a puzzle and claim a prize.

If you are passing our Hockley office in Spa Road this week with the kids why not pop in and take part in the Hockley Reading Trail. From Saturday 22nd July you'll notice some letters being displayed in the shop windows throughout the Village, but what do they mean? Your mission is to find all 11 letters and then unscramble them to find out our top tip for Summer and claim your book prize! What a fun way to spend an hour over the Summer holidays, well done to the very generous Joanne Randall of Just Love Reading for organising.
