What's it all about?
Halloween Choice gives you and your family the opportunity to enjoy the thrills and excitement of dressing up and going out on Halloween, but gives you a choice in the types of activities and costumes you wear.
What can you do?
There are three parts to Halloween Choice:
1. Start or end at a local church for a service - This could be the central and only activity for the evening. This would be building on the idea of being a 'saint' and what it means to be a modern-day 'saint'. This is an opportunity to hold a collection for The Children's Society.
2. Procession - Walk from the church service to another building. This might be another church, a community hall or just a procession around the church.
Discover the hidden gems of your local area after dark!
3. End at a party - You could have a party with 'bonfire-like' food such as bangers and mash, baked potatoes and toffee apples. You could also have quizzes, puzzles and games.
Why take part?
Not only will you have loads of fun on the day, but by collecting money you will help other children who don't have happy childhoods.
