A ‘Trick or Treat Trail’ is returning to Longridge this October half-term for a week of family fun.
Running from Monday, 27 October, to Saturday, 1 November, the Halloween trail is once again sponsored by Pendle Hill Properties and supported by Longridge Town Council and Love Longridge.
Children under 12 are invited to take part in this ghoulishly good challenge, visiting local shops across town to collect Halloween stamps, while there will also be sweet treats to collect from shops on the trail. There are 14 participating outlets and youngsters who collect 10 stamps or more will be entered into a spooky prize draw.

Trail cards are being delivered to over 3,000 schoolchildren in the local area and are also available in all participating shops. Longridge Town Council has donated a £100 toy shop voucher, Old Station Café is offering a £25 voucher, and Pendle Hill Properties is sponsoring a Halloween hamper.
Completed trail cards should be handed into the Pendle Hill Properties office at 74 Berry Lane, Longridge, no later than 1 November to qualify for entry.
On Friday, 31 October, Longridge Library will host a Spooky Storytime from 3-4pm, open to all families.
Nicki Wilkinson, Pendle Hill Properties, said: “The Trick or Treat Trail is something the children really look forward to every year. It’s a fantastic way to get families exploring Longridge, supporting local businesses and enjoying the Halloween spirit.”
