Virgin Trains is hosting the exciting large-scale treasure hunt and is inviting all families to take part.

Ollie, a real-life owl, will be hidden somewhere around the city and the first family to find him will win an amazing sleepover in a top London museum plus a fantastic family experience weekend in the capital city, all courtesy of Virgin Trains.

The clues leading to Ollie’s location will be revealed LIVE on the Virgin Trains East Coast Facebook page, and will start from 11am. Make sure you follow #WheresOllie to make sure you’re in with a chance.

Famous family Youtubers and Leeds locals, The Ingham Family, will be hidden along with Ollie to meet the winners when they claim their prize.

Chris Ingham commented: “We’re really happy to be taking part in the Virgin Trains’ live treasure hunt with Ollie the owl, it will be great fun for families and a lot of our Leeds’ friends are getting excited!”.

Suzanne Donnelly, Commercial Director for Virgin Trains’ east coast services, said: “We’re really looking forward to bringing excitement to Leeds families during half-term with our treasure hunt and wish good luck to everyone taking part!
