Families across the county will be able to celebrate Easter in style next week, by making bags from recycled textiles for their chocolate eggs.

On Monday, April 18, Frogmore Mill in Apsley will open its doors for the fun day.

Organised by the Paper Trail and Hemel in Transition, a organisation which seeks to promote greener living, the event will run from 10.30am to 12.30pm and 1.30pm to 3.30pm.

Visitors are expected to bring unwanted colourful plastic bags or food bags and will learn to knit or crochet their very own egg carrier.

Entry to The Paper Trail costs £3, but the provided activities are free.
