Charity

Our nominated charity this season at London Irish is Help for Heroes.

In addition to this, London Irish considers all other requests, with special consideration given to those which will benefit our local community. However, our resources are limited and regrettably we are unable to support every appeal we receive. For this reason we are only able to help an individual charity once per season and unfortunately we cannot support fund raising for expeditions.

The areas we predominantly cover are: Berkshire, Hampshire and the Sunbury locality.

Examples of ways London Irish has helped recently:

• Digger ran the London Marathon
• Signed rugby balls given to local rugby clubs and schools through the Community Programme
• Hundreds of tickets have been donated for raffles and auctions
• Bucket collections held at each home game

If you wish to purchase a London Irish shirt or ball*, we can arrange for these to be signed by the squad (subject to player availability), but we do require at least 3-4 weeks notice. All memorabilia will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. We will not guarantee the authenticity of any item without said certificate. For this service, we ask that you make a reasonable donation to one of our nominated charities.

If you are holding a charity fundraiser, please contact Community as Digger might also be available to come along!

Each request must be in writing, telephone or e-mail applications will not be considered. You should include the registered charity number.
