THE UK’s first ski slope in a shopping centre was unveiled in Merseyside.
The artificial slope, measuring 14m long and standing 3.5m high, was an immediate hit when it opened in Bootle last night. But it almost did not arrive when the truck transporting it to The Strand shopping centre broke down.
Bootle town centre manager Chris White said: “The slope has provoked loads of interest. We are looking forward to having office people on the ski slope in their lunch hour.”
It opens from 10am-3pm Fri 27th and Sat 28th Nov.
About 50 fancy dress runners also took part in a 1k race in North Park.
