CHILDREN are in for a treat this October half term as TV star Peppa Pig visits Bournemouth.

The friendly pig will be out and about along the seafront on Tuesday, and the first lucky Daily Echo readers to spot her will get a free toy to take home.

Peppa will be at Bournemouth Pier Approach five times during the day, and will give free Peppa Pig gifts out to the first 50 readers each time.

And every reader popping by to meet Peppa will receive exclusive seafront offers, including a free whippy ice cream with a kids meal purchased from Gullivers in Pier Approach, 25 per cent off beach hut hire, and two for one on the cliff lifts and the Pier Toll.

Pick up the Daily Echo on Thursday, October 20 for vouchers and full details of Peppa Pig’s visit.
