Supporting Local Charity

23rd December 2014

Circus Starr came to Leicester with a brand new tour and breath-taking line-up of acts on Tuesday 11th November 2014.

Over the past few months, local businesses, including Mulberry Square, have been generously supporting the show by buying tickets that are now being donated to local children’s charities, support groups and special schools.

Circus Starr Director, Neville Wilson comments, “The children we invite to our shows face many challenges. Some have physical disabilities or learning difficulties, others have life limiting illnesses or are living in refuges. For all of them, life is a struggle and few ever have the chance to experience a live show such as ours. We simply could not do this without the support we receive from Leicester businesses from the big corporations to the sole traders, every donation we receive makes a difference to these children’s lives.”

OpenSSL is software which is used across much of the internet for encryption purposes, and many companies therefore use this software to keep their systems (and their customers’ data) secure. Any breach of these systems could have serious consequences.
