Primark are urgently recalling children's wooden plates over health and safety fears.
The retail giant is urging customers who own the affected plates to return them after the products were found to release trace amounts of lead and formaldehyde at a higher level than EU regulation permits as safe.
Customers do not need a receipt and will still receive a refund.
