About

The true identity of a very festive intruder, spotted on CCTV arriving at Braintree Village, has now been confirmed as none other than Santa's most esteemed helper… the scout Elf!

As per Christmas tradition, the scout Elf has been tasked with keeping an eye on guests…he's gonna find out who's naughty or nice! And this year, it seems that Elf has decided to take residence at Braintree Village for the month of December - watching guests, appearing here and there around the centre and of course already getting up to his world-renowned mischief!

To celebrate the Elf's arrival, Braintree Village has launched an official Elf Hunt and is encouraging Elf hunters to take s-Elfies and share them on social media with the hashtag #BVElf.

As well as the Elf Hunt, guests to Braintree Village can enjoy seasonal entertainment from local community groups on selected dates along with supporting local charity First Stop Centre by donating a Christmas gift at The Giving Tree.
