A SPECIAL guest will pay a visit as a popular attraction will open for free to families to help raise cash for good causes.

Join Ann Coe, the mayor of Brentwood, will be at Old MacDonald’s Farm, in South Weald, and see the animals and go on the rides.

Old MacDonald’s has waived all charges for the evening and, instead, is asking for donations on entry.

Proceeds will be split between the mayor’s chosen charities for the year, which are: Crossroads Care; Frontline partnership, Sawyers Church and the Alzheimer’s Society.

Lloyd Warbey, from Disney Junior’s Art Attack, is also set to attend.

Mark Reed, chairman of Brentwood Council’s retail, community and culture panel, said: “I’m thrilled Lloyd will be coming to our event at Old McDonald’s Farm.

“I know all the Art Attack fans from all over Brentwood and further beyond will be very pleased to have this opportunity to meet Lloyd, who comes from Romford, and have a great evening at the farm.”

The event will be from 6pm this evening (Aug 23).
