“Despite Storm Dave threatening to derail things at the last minute, they adapted, delivered, and gave away more than 600 Easter eggs to delighted families across the weekend, that is no small feat and deserves enormous recognition.

“Seeing so many families out together, enjoying the festivities alongside Newquay BID’s monthly market, was a reminder of what makes this town so special.

“Events like this bring our community together and show visitors exactly why Newquay is such a wonderful place to be.

“If you haven’t yet taken part in the Easter Trail, there’s still time, get the family out and make the most of the holidays.”
