Richard House Fundraiser
Leopards Basketball Club will be aiming to raise money for the Richard
House Hospice when they stage their next home game at the Brentwood
Centre.
The Big Cats host Bristol Flyers in the EBL Division One on Sunday November 16, and they will running a full programme of fundraising for the Becton based hospice.
Richard House has been providing care and support for life-limited and life-threatened children and their families since the year 2000. They accompany them during the child or young person’s journey through life to death, creating positive experiences along the way which become good memories for the future.
There will be bucket collections during the afternoon, a chance to buy signed warm-up shorts worn by the Leopards’ team as well as a stall in support of the charity.
After the game Leopards will be holding an auction in the bar at Brentwood Centre, and among the items going under the hammer is a signed West Ham United shirt, concert tickets for events at Brentwood and a framed Leopards shirt.
The club are also hoping to obtain a signed England shirt worn by Chelsea’s
Frank Lampard and something from Frank Lampard.
Leopards’ chairman Fred Dicker is hoping the day will be a big success:
“We’re looking forward to help Richard House, and w hope that
we can raise a lot of money for the charity.
“We’re expecting our biggest crowd since returning to Brentwood
this season, and it’s a chance for everyone to help a worthwhile
cause.”
The action starts at 4pm, with tickets available on the day priced 8 for
adults and 5 for children. Further details available from 07940 539197
