The Easter egg hunt is ready!

 

A certain cotton-tailed creature with a basket full of goodies took time out of his busy schedule to visit the charity, which aims to empower people with disabilities, stopping to say hello to children as they searched for Easter eggs.
The event also saw guests enjoy a bouncy castle and face painting, as well as games, delicious cakes and refreshments while soaking up the atmosphere as the springtime sun shone down on Stockport.

Lisa Brett attended the event along with her two daughters. She commented: “I took my girls, Ava and Iris, to Independent Options Easter egg hunt, where they took part in the games, had their faces painted, and even met the Easter Bunny before they took on the Easter egg hunt. We all had a fantastic time as the sun was shining and it was great to get involved in such a lovely day for a great cause.”

The money will go a long way to supporting those who use Independent Options’ services and we’d like to say a huge thank you to everyone who came along and supported the event. It would not have been such a fantastic day without them.”
