Spiderman spotted in Melton !
Children in Melton have been thrilled to spot Spiderman patrolling their neighbourhoods.
Local sports coach Thomas Craig, of TB Sport, has dressed up as the comic book superhero to raise spirits in lockdown.
Thomas said: “It’s great to see the reactions from the children and adults.
“I know the children I teach PE to are missing school, their friends and their clubs.
“But I have also noticed that most children who are still coming to school are in Avengers and Spiderman clothing so I feel it reaches out to a lot of people.”
He added: “It’s important especially at this moment in time to keep our spirits up.
“When so many things have been paused or taken away from us this can be difficult.
“I’ve been out biking during the lockdown but thought if the exercise limit could be used to do something to raise spirits then it’d be worthwhile.”
Little Theo Poyzer enjoyed seeing the superhero on patrol in Edendale Road.
His mum Liza said: “He’s putting smiles on the kids’ faces.
“My little boy Theo and lots of others love it.”
