Emmerdales Viv Hope

Emmerdales Viv Hope

Poundland, the first of the stores who are investing locally thanks to the impressive new St. Georges’s Square development at The Mall Luton, is having a grand opening on Saturday 11th September - featuring special guest celebrity Deena Payne who plays Viv Hope in ITV’s top soap Emmerdale.

Deena Payne will be officially opening the store at 10am and will be there until 1pm to sign autographs, have pictures taken and give away 50 £1 vouchers to lucky customers. In addition, a DJ will be in store between 9am and 4pm, and shoppers will be able to take part in the Checkout Challenge game – in which £10 Poundland vouchers will be given away every half hour from 10.30am until 3pm.

Poundland already has a thriving store in The Mall Luton but has chosen to relocate into a bigger store closer to the exciting new development. The new store will be adjacent to the new atrium, next door to Wilkinson and near to Burger King, and will be a whopping 301 square metres bigger than the older unit opposite the Disney Store.

Poundland was founded in 1990 with a promise to sell every product for just £1. This vision has been kept to this day, bringing amazing value products at one incredibly low price. The store sells top brands, fantastic new lines and everyday items and has been satisfying shoppers for 20 years.
Poundland will be opening its doors to the public on Thursday 9th September, two days ahead of the official launch.

LUTON PROVES IT REALLY DOES HAVE A HEART!

August 27th, 2010

The Heart laid down in Smith's SquareLuton shoppers have raised £241.35 over the past three weeks by supporting Luton Has Heart – the competition run by The Herald & Post and The Mall Luton to support Keech Hospice Care .

The lucky winner of the £50 prize-draw was Paul Butterfield, whose message was picked at random last Monday from the 186 squares laid on the floor of the mall with messages of support for the Hospice. The first square was laid down by four year old Kaine Reeves, a young patient from the hospice, and since then it has grown and grown. This giant heart that developed on the floor of The Mall Luton was a great symbol of the generosity of local people.

Brian McFarland, General Manager of The Mall Luton, said “This has been a novel way to raise awareness and support for the Hospice and has created lots of interest. We are delighted with the response we received and are very grateful to our shoppers for supporting this worthwhile local charity.”

PLAY POOL IN THE MALL LUTON AND RAISE FUNDS FOR BREAST CANCER

August 25th, 2010

Carl ‘Houdini’ Morris

Carl ‘Houdini’ Morris

Ever wanted to see just how good you are at pool? Well, your opportunity has arrived! Former World Champion, Carl Morris will be in Central Square in The Mall Luton from Thursday 19th to Saturday 21st August, challenging shoppers to a game in order to raise money for the charity Against Breast Cancer.
Carl ‘Houdini’ Morris is a gifted and charismatic pool player. He was World Champion by the time he was just 21 despite being profoundly deaf as a result of childhood meningitis. Today his skills as a pool player and a showman thrill amuse audiences throughout the UK – and raise vital funds for charity.
For a £3 donation, you can pit your skills with a cue against a world champion on the green baize.
Carl and ‘Charity Pool Exhibitions’, his business that helps raise funds as well as the profile of the charity, Against Breast Cancer, have so far raised just over £100,000 and are aiming to raise £1m for charity. To help achieve this target, anyone who donates a minimum of £500 will be entitled to host an exhibition by Carl ‘Houdini’ Morris at their own venue or workplace!
Carl’s spectacular playing style is a joy to watch - a high level of world-class pool, with clearances being done in less than 60 seconds, plenty of lively banter and audience participation. Each exhibition is a unique entertainment experience that draws enthusiastic crowds who talk about the experience for many months afterwards.
Lavinia Holland, Marketing Manager from The Mall Luton says “We are very excited about Carl Morris coming to The Mall Luton. This is a fantastic way to raise money for Against Breast Cancer and we hope lots of shoppers turn up to donate funds and challenge Carl to a game or two!”
Anne Hall, PR Manager for Against Breast Cancer, says; “Against Breast Cancer funds unique research to increase survival after diagnosis and ultimately to discover a vaccine against breast cancer. What ‘Charity Pool Exhibitions’ is doing is a brilliant and unique way to fundraise, it’s not often you get the opportunity to donate to a charity and in return secure a pool exhibition by a former world pool champion! We are pleased they are doing this for us.”
So, if you fancy your chances of beating a professional, why not come along and pit your skills but, win or lose, the true winner will be the charity, and your generosity will have helped to make a difference.

NEW LOOK FOR NATIONWIDE AS HARVEY STEPS UP TO SNETTERTON

August 9th, 2010

New car livery

New car livery

A lot can happen in seven weeks, and the team at Nationwide Accident Repair Services plc has been very busy during the mid-season break of the Porsche Carrera Cup. When Tim Harvey lines up at Snetterton next weekend (7/8 August 2010) for rounds 11 and 12 of the championship, spectators will notice a difference: the livery of the championship leading Red Line Racing Porsche has been revamped to reflect important changes at Nationwide – Tim’s major sponsor.

Nationwide is the largest automotive vehicle body repair in the UK with 71 bodyshops, a fleet of glass and body mobile repair vans, and a rapidly expanding accident management business. However, to make life clearer for car drivers and fleet managers across the UK, the business will now be promoting its extensive services under one brand, quite simply: Nationwide. Over the months ahead, all of the company’s communications, including its website, will be revamped to reflect this simplification. However, Tim’s championship leading car, in the high profile and prestigious Porsche Carrera Cup, is the first time the new branding will be used.

The reason for this change? Even though over 190,000 customers use Nationwide’s services every year, many people still think that they can only go to Nationwide via an insurance company.

However, customers can phone Nationwide if they have a cracked windscreen, or if they would like a paint chip repaired on their driveway, and get an appointment at a time and date which suits them. They can pop in to a Nationwide repair centre to get a quote for repairs or restorations to a vehicle, and receive a competitive, professional estimate – costing much less than many of their competitors, but with the quality expected from the UK’s leading body repairer.

In addition, Nationwide has more accident management experience and automotive insurance claims handling than any other organisation in the UK, and offers these professional and reliable services to insurance companies, rental organisations and businesses operating large fleets.

Tim has already notched up nine wins out of the 10 races so far this season, and is leading the championship by 29 points. However, with many driver hot on Tim’s heels and marking him as the man to beat, Tim is not about to become complacent at the East Anglian circuit. “Although it is great to be in the lead at this point in the championship, everything can change very quickly in motorsport. My strategy is to keep winning, keep getting in front, and maintain that position. The break allows everyone to take stock and refocus, so I’m expecting that Snetterton is going to be fiercely contested and very exciting.”

The qualifying for the Porsche Carrera Cup is on Saturday 7 August at 14.45, with both races on Sunday at 9.10 and 15.00. The second race is due to be shown live BTCC race day programme on ITV4, which starts at 11.30am.

We know that the people of Luton have big hearts, but local shoppers now have the chance to prove it! The Herald & Post and The Mall Luton have joined forces to support the local charity Keech Hospice Care, in the ‘Luton Has Heart’ competition, which will see one lucky person win a £50 gift card from The Mall.

The ‘Luton Has Heart’ competition was launched on Thursday 5 August at midday in Smith’s Square by four year old Kaine Reeves who is helped by the Keech Hospice. Kaine, who was accompanied by his mother, brother Jordan, and Keech Hospice Staff, laid the very first ‘heart’ message on the floor.

Kaine’s mother Natalie commented, “It was an honour to be asked to represent Keech for the opening, Keech has been a life line for our family. Because of Kaine’s needs we do not get much rest at night and Keech gives us the opportunity to catch up on much needed sleep. They have supported us emotionally during tough times. Kaine also benefits from their community team who offer play sessions and music sessions in our own home, which makes such a difference as Kaine has not been well enough to access school and aid his development.”

To join in the fun, support Keech Hospice Care and be in with a chance of winning £50. Simply cut out this red square, fill in your name, telephone number and a message for the hospice and take it down to the Ask Me Point in The Mall Luton at any time between today and Sunday 22 August 2010.

Your square will make up part of a giant heart laid out on the floor of the Mall, and your name will go into a lucky dip. The winning entry will be drawn at midday on Monday 23 August next to the heart in Smith’s Square (outside M&S). The winning entry will win a cool £50 Mall gift card - perfect for summer holiday shopping.

Jacqui Shepherd, Director of Fundraising from Keech Hospice Care, stated, “The team from the Mall are wonderful supporters of Keech, we can’t thank them enough for this fantastic idea and getting the local shoppers and the local paper involved in building the giant heart. This is a true partnership. This all started with NatWest giving us £50 notes to give to local business and in return asking them to generate much needed funds in an imaginative way. The team from the Mall have really stepped up to the challenge. I hope everyone will support them and our families by building the heart”.

There is no entry fee however we hope that everyone who participates will make a donation to Keech Hospice Care. The lucky winner will be announced in the Herald & Post on Thursday 26th August.

Ends.

Tom Stainsby, the Store Manager from Marks and Spencer said “We are so proud of winning the Overall Best Retailer Award for the second year running! It is great to be rated so highly amongst the other retailers and it really does mean a lot to be entered in to the national competition.”
