A CHILDREN'S guide to County Durham will hit the supermarket shelves this week.

The Clever Clogs Children's Guide to County Durham, a list of family and children's activities, will be available from Waitrose, in Durham city.

The book has information on topics, including nurseries, schools, out-of-school groups and healthcare.

Editor Heather Alabaster said: "Over the years, we have built a reputation for producing high-quality information for families.

"To stock it in Waitrose will make it even more accessible for local families."

Gail Farrar, from Waitrose, said: "With good weather forecast for the summer holidays, we think this guide will be a godsend for parents getting out and about with their children."

The guide will be available from Waitrose, in The Gates Shopping Centre, Durham, later this week, priced £6.99.
