Show your support for Leicester Tigers and Help For Heroes at Welford Road on Saturday.

Tigers continue the defence of their Guinness Premiership crown in the first East Midlands derby of the season against Northampton Saints (5.35pm), and then the Tigers Academy face a British Army Development XV in support of Help For Heroes (7.45pm).

The Parachute Regiment band will be in attendance to add to the entertainment during the afternoon, performing before the main game and again before the Academy match, and supporters can buy Help For Heroes wristbands from volunteers based around the stadium.

Tigers are also making a donation to Help For Heroes through the club’s group booking scheme.

Leicester Tigers chairman Peter Tom CBE said: “Help For Heroes is a very deserving cause and I’m sure fans from Tigers and Saints will show their generous support on Saturday.

“We are delighted to host two high-profile fixtures on one day and we’re looking forward to it.”

Tickets are still on sale from the Tigers ticket office. Phone the hotline on 0844 856 1880, book online or call in at Welford Road now. The office is open 8.30am-5pm each day and until 8pm on Wednesdays.

Help for Heroes has no affiliation with any political party and all money raised is used to support wounded Servicemen and women. For more information, or to make a donation online, see the website at www.helpforheroes.org.uk
