1. Toy Soldier Trail

They’re back! and this year there are 2 new recruits so, 12 in total to find around the Town Centre. Once you have all 12 names complete the entry form, on the trail map, then post in Santa’s mailbox at the Junction of Montague Street and Montague Place, or send to the TCI offices at 12, The Steyne. All correct entries will be entered into the draw to win a Family Gift Hamper which includes cordless earbuds, Lego, Duplo, games, sweets and more …. (value of over £200).

If you don’t have time to complete the entire trail, or you just love selfies, then take a photo with one of the soldiers and post on social media with the #worthingsoldier. The most innovative and fun post, as decided by our judges, will receive cordless headphones and a sweet hamper.

The Toy Soldiers will be on parade from Wednesday 2nd December. To be included in the draw entries must be received by 9am on 23rd December. The prize draw will take place 23rd December and if the winners are located within 5 miles of Worthing the prize will be delivered in time for Christmas.

2. Christmas Tree Festival Trail

This year there are 14 fantastic 8ft Christmas Trees located around the Town Centre. Each of these has been adopted by a business or community group and they have decorated their tree to brighten up Worthing. Spend time looking at the trees and then vote for your favourite, there is a place to vote on your Toy Soldier Trail Map, alternatively there will be a pinned post on the Worthing Town Centre Initiative Facebook Page WorthingTCI, or email your vote to info@worthingtowncentre.co.uk.

The tree with the highest number of votes will win £500; however, its worth getting involved as everyone who votes will be entered into a draw to win a Family Gift Hamper with cordless headphones, games, Lego, sweets and much more.
