Super hero to visit Coalville development

It’s not every day a super hero arrives in town - but Linden Homes is preparing to welcome its very own Caped Crusader at Coalville in Leicestershire.

Helping to support Armed Forces Day on Saturday June 25, Linden Homes will be hosting its own day of awareness, fund-raising, competitions and of a visit by one of the comic book world’s best loved heroes.

Armed Forces Day is a national, annual celebration to recognise the efforts of servicemen and women – from those currently serving in the forces to veterans – and their families.

To mark the event, Linden Homes will be bringing a hero if its own to the Ashby Heights development in Coalville in the guise of Batman.

As well as having the opportunity to have your photo taken with Batman, young visitors can don their super hero outfit – and anyone attending the development during the day will be invited to enter a free prize draw to win a Wii console and game.

During the weekend, Linden Homes will also be raising money for its own chosen charity - Help For Heroes – where £250 from every reservation from the weekend of June 25/26 will be donated to the cause.

Linden Homes sales and marketing director Steve Garton said: “As a company, we have a long and successful relationship with the armed forces both here and overseas.

“We wanted to show our support for those men and women who do, and who have, served our country – and thought we’d bring along a hero of our own!”

“Batman will be at the development from 11am until 2pm.

The Ashby Heights development is open from Thursday to Monday from 10.30am until 5pm.
