Sponsoring SportsAid every year means we get to attend the SportsAid lunch at Old Albanian RFC which took place on Friday. It's always an absolute pleasure to support this cause, which supports up and coming young athletes.

Monty Panesar gave a great talk about how he got involved in cricket and his career highlights as a spin bowler. And we heard from Lenny Tancock, Judo star from Bishops Stortford, who told us how he has benefited from SportsAid funding.

Dr Derek Redmond (Hon) OLY., former Olympic athlete and recently appointed Director of SportsAid Eastern, spoke about the vital role SportsAid continues to play in developing future sporting talent.

Thanks to Rayner Essex and Jenny Tryfonos for hosting and organising this event.
