Fundraising Lunch 2022

Fundraising Lunch 2022

  • 30/09/2022

Our 1st, 2nd and 3rd lunches were pretty epic not only because of the food, wine and entertainment on offer but also because of the fundraising levels we achieved to continue our mission of ‘Protecting Players’ and ‘Supporting Families’.

On Friday 30th September 2022 we are having our 4th Fundraising Lunch and once again Mark Durden-Smith will be hosting the show together with Ben Kay (England & World Cup Winner), Craig Chalmers (Scotland & British & Irish Lion) and one of Richmond Women’s greats, Sue Dorrington (Founder of the Women’s Rugby World Cup) entertaining the crowd. It promises to be an excellent lunch and one we hope we’ll remember!

See below for more details about the lunch and for table bookings and or seat at the table please contact Amy at [email protected].
