TELEVISION personality Johnny Ball is visiting Teesside tomorrow to promote British foods.

Mr Ball, who is also a farmer, will be at Tesco in Stockton's Durham Road as part of the National Farmers' Union Food and Farming Roadshow, from 10am to 4pm.

Farmers will talk to shoppers about the advantages of British food and there will be activities for children, including a model cow to milk and week-old baby chicks.

Mr Ball said: "It is really important that children and their parents can find out more about their food and where it comes from."
