Last chance to get tickets for Diverse Abilities’ Rugby Lunch

Diverse Abilities, Dorset’s disability charity, hosts its Rugby Lunch, at Hoburne Park, Christchurch, on Friday 16 September sponsored by Dunore Utility Connections.

The Rugby Lunch includes great entertainment, networking opportunities, and guest celebrity appearances from Tom Shanklin - former Welsh Rugby Union player who played outside centre for Cardiff Blues and Wales and has scored 20 tries for his country, placing him 5th equal on the list of record try-scorers for Wales, and David Flatman – former prop for Bath and the England national rugby team turned pundit.

Over the past 11 years the event has raised a combined total of more than £260,000. Funds raised at the event ensure the charity can continue to make a difference to children and adults living with physical and learning disabilities in the county, and their families.

Jonathan Newsham, Director at Dunore Utility Connections commented; “It means so much to us to support a charity that does so much to help children and adults with physical and learning disabilities.

“It’s such a pleasure to be involved in the event, and we are really looking forward to the Rugby Lunch on Friday 16 September”.

There are limited tickets available, so be sure to get your tickets now to enjoy this special event. The sporting lunch kicks off at 12pm with welcome drinks and a VIP reception for sponsors, before guests take their seats for a three-course meal and hear from the celebrity guest speakers. There will also be an opportunity to win the famous Knife, Fork, and Spoon game, raffle prizes, and auction lots, of which prizes are donated from local businesses and the community. Tickets for the sporting lunch are £65 per ticket, and £600 for a table of 10.
