Lichfield
The peaceful town of Lichfield is in shock after the sudden disappearance of beloved town crier, Ivor Bellow. Known for his booming voice and love for his trusty bell, Ivor was found with his prized possession flattened by his side. The town is abuzz with theories - did his loud announcements anger a local looking for a quiet morning? Or perhaps a rival bellman coveted his position? It's up to YOU, top detectives, to follow the trail of clues and solve the mystery before it's too late!

Perfect for 4-8 year olds, the concept behind the Clubs is that your child will get a bundle of goodies to excite
them about their forthcoming Trail experience, something to keep them entertained whilst travelling to and from
the Trail, and something to be given on completion of the Trail as a keepsake.
