WIN a Treasure Trails guided book

Treasure Time Outside

Village People is giving away 4 guided Treasure Trail booklets (worth £9.99 each), so you can join a friend on a fun Norfolk adventure

With our lives finally opening up, Treasure Trails are the perfect way to reconnect and have fun together while discovering the secret history of your local area. Fancy going on a spy mission in the Norwich Lanes, hunting down treasure along Great Yarmouth’s Golden Mile, or tracking down clues like a real detective in Heacham?! Treasure Trails are a fantastic way to get outside, get your steps up, and keep entertained locally. Anyone of any age can enjoy them – they’re not just for kids! These themed self-guided walking trail booklets take explorers on a circular outdoor route of approximately two miles. En route, you have the added challenge of working together to hunt down clues and solve a puzzling Detective Mystery, Treasure Hunt, or Spy Mission. While you catch crooks and track down spies or hidden treasure, Treasure Trails showcase your local surroundings in a fun and adventurous new light. Each puzzle incorporates clues on local landmarks, signs, statues, monuments, images, engravings, and other eye-catching features. There are more than 1,200 Treasure Trails across the UK and 48 to choose from across Norfolk.

To be in with a chance of winning, visit www.village-people.info and follow the links to the competition page. Closing date is 11 July 2021 and the usual Village People rules apply.

ECO SWAPS – get supremely soapy with a Sea Sponge

Imagine taking a bath with a sea sponge! You will most likely conjure up an image of a traditional Greek honeycomb sponge, with its large pores resembling a Swiss cheese… perhaps you had one as a child. Sponges excel at cleaning, exfoliating and polishing the skin in a way that hands — or a cotton flannel — cannot rival. With their open texture, sponges build soap lather, while their absorbent qualities help with rinsing. Most of all, they make any shower or bath supremely pleasurable, as children discover at bath time and in paddling pools! Despite the soft feel of the honeycomb sponge, it’s remarkably durable, often outlasting a year of bath duty to offer further use as a household cleaning tool. Finally — after providing wonderful washing and cleaning experiences — it will biodegrade when discarded, leaving you with a clean conscience. There are many different species of sea sponge. About a dozen of these are harvested, but none from cold British waters. At Natural Spa Supplies, with our emphasis on traditional sourcing, our sponges are collected by trained divers in Greece, who are also marine conservationists. Harvesting the sponges by hand ensures the root is left firmly in place, allowing regeneration of the same sponge. We offer 10 sponge species ranging from 1-14 inches, with a selection for face care, bathing, cleaning and pet care. We also have ‘wonky’ sponges, or seconds, which are often snapped up by artists and grandparents. Find your ideal sponges on our website.
