Chantelle Henderson, Marketing Coordinator<br />
at Waterside Shopping, commented: “The<br />
Magna Carta is, by far, one of the world’s most<br />
important historical documents, so it’s only<br />
right to celebrate such a key piece of history,<br />
and it’s connection to Lincoln, by educating<br />
people about it’s significance in a fun and<br />
interesting way.<br />
“With so much going on over the weekend,<br />
we look forward to welcoming youngsters<br />
and parents from Lincoln and beyond for an<br />
afternoon of Magna Carta mania in the centre.<br />
There will be plenty to see and do, and, best of<br />
all, its all free – plus, there’s no better time to<br />
do a bit of summertime shopping!”<br />
