A CHARITY Easter egg hunt has been launched.

Brighton’s Charity Egg Hunt was set up by engineering company TSS Facilities to raise money for Chestnut Tree House children’s hospice, near Arundel, and the official charity for Brighton and Hove Albion Football Club, Albion In The Community.

Seven eggs will be hidden around the city and clues about their location will be released weekly on Brighton’s Charity Egg Hunt Twitter page.

Each egg has a number on it for the public to text with the word “Egg” at the cost of £1. All funds raised will be donated to both charities.

Weekly prizes are up for grabs for all entries, as well as prizes for those who find all seven eggs and for those who find the golden egg, which will be hidden on one of TSS Facilities’ vans. The first egg was put on Brighton’s i360 on Friday.
