This Easter, the Bentall Centre in Kingston is inviting families and visitors of all ages to join in a series of "exciting and creative" events, inspired by the whimsical world of Alice in Wonderland.

Tina Powley-Mapp, Centre Director, said: "The Bentall Centre prides itself in creating a warm and inviting space for families and friends to come together, whether you are hunting for the perfect Easter gift of simply soaking in the springtime cheer, our centre is the ideal destination to make cherished memories."

The centrepiece of the event is a "larger-than-life installation that brings the fantastical charm of Alice in Wonderland to life".

Visitors will be captivated by the vibrant and imaginative display, which will set the perfect backdrop for the numerous activities happening throughout the event.

Easter Activities and Workshops include:
