Richmond: Big Richmond Book Hunt 5th March



Hello! I'd like to tell you about a FREE EVENT for children that's taking place in Richmond from 3.30pm on Thursday 5th March 2026 to celebrate World Book Day.

At least 50 Usborne books will be hidden around the town centre for children to find. Hunt for a book and then you can take it home to read and keep it or to spread the love of reading, re-hide it for others to find.

Local businesses have sponsored this event, so a big thank you so far to Elixir Ristorante The Town Hall Pub and Dining Market Place Travel - Richmond Specsavers King Street Kitchen & Gift Deja Brew Cafe Dots Place and Scotts, Hall and Birtles Solicitors.

There is still room for other local businesses to get involved and spread the joy of reading, please see details below.

Kids...it's FREE to take part. Books are for around ages 2-10. Hunt until you find one that's suitable for you! 

If you would like to get FREE activity sheets and also the chance to WIN a fab Usborne Good Bag, then please REGISTER by following this link https://tinyurl.com/BRBHregistration
