Special thanks to the Meinhardt team, who, as every year, volunteer their time to ensure the day is a success. We look forward to hosting again next year.”

Nathaniel Gregory, Regional Director at Meinhardt (UK) Ltd said; “Meinhardt’s annual charity touch rugby tournaments is always one of my favourite days in the year and this year it was no different. It was brilliant to catch up with our close contacts within the industry whilst playing at such an imperial setting at the HAC. We again have raised a fantastic amount in close partnership with Centre Point who play a vital role in the task to end homelessness. Perhaps next year I may even decide to finally play after seven years of making up excuses…Finally thank you to all our sponsors and Meinhardt helpers on the day who without them the event could not happen. Looking forward to next year’s event already.”
