Employees, along with friends and family at financial recruiter Goodman Masson, have helped break the world record for most Supermen gathered in one place at one time.

To raise money for charity Help for Heroes, which provides better facilities for wounded British servicemen and women, 180 men, women and children gathered at Charterhouse Square in the City to break the World Record kitted out in Superman’s renowned blue jump suit, red shoes and red cape.

The previous record was held by 122 participants in an event organised in the City of Metropolis, Illinois, on 15 June 2008.
