A special Christmas themed window trail brings a festive feel good boost to Falkirk town centre. A mixture of 12 different sized Toy Soldiers are hidden in shop windows throughout the town centre to recreate the popular Nutcracker Trail with local children having named them.

Simply follow the trail and write the name of the soldier in the space provided and post your entry form into the special Post Box located next to the Help Desk before 22nd December.
