A SUPERMARKET has issued an urgent product recall after several items of children’s clothing were found to fail UK safety tests.

The jersey lining in the children’s dressing gowns from George at Asda do not meet flammability requirements.

Customers who have recently bought one of the affected products are asked to return their product to their nearest Asda store.

You do not need your receipt to receive a refund.

A statement released by Asda said: “We have found that the cotton jersey hood lining used in these styles doesn't meet the stringent flammability requirements as set out by George and the UK Nightwear (Safety) Regulations.

“If you have purchased any of the gowns you should stop using it immediately and bring it back to your nearest store.”
