Free family fun this half term in Godalming

Looking for something creative and fun to occupy your children this half term? Why not get involved in one of our free Family Activity Trails, the latest of which is now available in Godalming. Waverley Borough Council Economic Development, and Cultural Services teams, have been working in partnership with Godalming Town Council, the Surrey Library Service and A Line Art to develop the trail.

The free trails have already proved popular in Farnham and Haslemere, letting you explore different locations and landmarks, pausing for fun physical and creative challenges as you go.

You can head to Godalming Library to pick up your free Family Activity Trail sheet. The Godalming trail follows the riverside path through the Phillips Memorial Park where it leads up to Church Street and finishes by The Pepperpot. From there you can venture into Godalming Museum where there’s lots to discover about the town. 

If you have been inspired by the activity, why not book onto a free family workshop at Godalming Library on Wednesday 1 June. Join  A LINE ART for this fun, interactive session where adults and children can create their own activity trails to be recreated at home. The sessions are 45 minutes and adults must accompany children. Times are 11.30am, 12.30pm, 2.15pm and 3.15pm To book your free space at this or a workshop in Farnham and Haslemere you can visit:

Fold our Town

Alongside the Activity Trail we are inviting families to help us create a large paper model town inspired by Godalming and the local area. 

Fold Our Town is a free downloadable pack full of templates and ideas to get stuck into at home. We want you to use your imagination to bring to life the local landmarks, places and spaces which are important to you. Using the templates simply draw, colour, and decorate your landmarks or design your own in the blanks provided. Carefully cut them out and fold them to bring them to life. You can access the pack by visiting Fold our Town: https://www.alineart.co.uk/events/fold-our-town-godalming-surrey or hard copies of the pack will also be available to pick up for free from Godalming Library.
