Bring the children to enjoy the Boggart Hunt at Sunday's Minithon

If you go down to the Boggart Hole woods on Sunday you’ll get a big surprise - and that’s not just from the lycra-clad masses taking part in this year’s FC Minithon. There will also be a special Boggart Hunt for children to take part in with special prizes on offer for the winners.

Boggart Hole Clough in Blackley gets its name from the mythical mischievous impish creatures called boggarts. They were said to roam the leafy woods playing all sorts of tricks on whoever dared enter. A boggart is even featured in Harry Potter. On Sunday, families will have a chance to spot two boggarts hiding in the trees. The children who catch them will have their name put in a raffle for a special prize at the afte-run social in the Lakeside cafe.

Entry for under 18s is just £3, so why not bring your young ones down for a healthy day out. Entry for adults registering online for the Minithon before Sunday is £10 but £20 on the day. So don’t delay. Book here now, get sponsors and help us raise funds for the club!
