BURY'S popular Mill Gate shopping centre is on a roll with a programme of events and attractions to celebrate Easter.

Themed entertainment runs throughout the Easter school holidays until March 31 and includes Easter card workshops, face-painting and a spectacular Easter animal roadshow for the little kids.

Also, there will be cartoon-style rabbits to meet and greet and the incredible Bart and Homer Simpson for the big kids.

If the youngest children get a kiddy car, they will get their very own "driving licence" during the holidays and a free Easter egg.

On Tuesday and Thursday, March 31 there will be face painting and kiddy car activities. Children can meet Molly the Rabbit next Thursday, March 24 and Bart and Homer Simpson on Tuesday, March 29. The centre's Easter card workshop will be held on Good Friday.
