CHILDREN will be able to try on a fireman's helmet and ride a fire engine at the McArthur Glen Designer Outlet this weekend.

The crew will appear at the outlet centre between 10am and 2pm on Saturday and will be giving out fire safety advice to children and their families.

There will be entertainment at the outlet centre throughout the Bank Holiday weekend.

On Sunday Nigel the Clown will be entertaining shoppers with his antics.

And on Bank Holiday Monday children will be able to get their faces painted for free. McArthur Glen centre manager Franco Muccini, said: "We know how difficult it is for parents to find fun free things to do with their kids on Bank Holidays.

"We wanted to work with the local fire station this weekend to try and educate our shoppers about fire safety and help them raise money for such a worthy cause."
