Viva Las Vegas


Would you like to have a great night, whilst raising funds for a really good cause?
If so, don’t delay in reserving your seats for this evening of Las Vegas Glamour!
All the Vegas elements will be there: Champagne, posh Dinner and a Casino.
With the amazing voice of Danny Roman (who sounds like Vegas Legend, Tom Jones).
Not only will you have a brilliant time, you’ll be helping to raise funds for Willowbrook Hospice.

Easter Animal Magic at Norton Priory



Suitable for all the family, these activities will give you something a bit different to do!

Join the team at Norton Priory as they discover some of the animal babies that call Norton Priory home.

Follow the animal trail around the garden and uncover fascinating facts about our local wildlife.

Make your own animal life-cycle mobile to take home or enjoy a story with Paul the Ranger!

It won't matter what the weather is like, you'll be sure to have an enjoyable and fun day out!
