Rock ‘N’ Rugby Lunch
Plenty of star power joined us to celebrate and fundraise ahead of England vs. Ireland Six Nations match.
The afternoon before Ireland won their match against England, guests rallied and rocked together to help us fundraise over £150k worth of much-needed funds for the various projects we support.
Former rugby union player Martin Bayfield lead proceedings, chatting with special guests former England captain Lawerence Dallaglio, London Irish flanker Sean O’Brien and journalist Zoe Williams.
Joining us once more was the fantastic Laura Whitmore who led a thought-provoking interview with Bridget, a beneficiary of our grants.
Followed by wonderful live performances from Mundy and Moncrieff that got all our guests rocking on their feet in celebration.
Thank you to everyone who attended and donated so generously, including singer-songwriters Niall Horan, Lewis Capaldi, the Lord Mayor of London Vincent Keaveny and Mike McCormack MD of the Universal Music Publishing Group.
A sincere thanks to the team at Exponent Private Equity for providing support to the event. We’d like to thank all our hosts, Malcolm McNally for capturing the event, Claridge’s Hotel for their wonderful hospitality and Bentley’s Oyster Bar & Grill for hosting an after-party.
