A MONMOUTHSHIRE farm has cancelled a series of open day visits for primary school children following the outbreak of a diarrhoea-causing virus.

Public Health Wales along with Torfaen and Monmouthshire councils are continuing to investigate an outbreak of cryptosporidium associated with Coleg Gwent’s farm in Usk.

Seven people have tested positive for cryptosporidium and 16 others are suspected of having the bug after regular attendance at the farm or contact with those who have.
