When it was said that a rugby march would take place which entailed going to every premiership ground passing a rugby ball I was so sceptical. I realised the enormity of the project. The organisation of the teams, the route planning, the press involvement, the transport, accommodation....the list of admin tasks enormous. The ambitious total of £100,000 a surely impossible sum. But no, you all made it happen. Every one played their part and despite the physical challenge all survived to tell the tale.
It was an emotional journey for us all and the sight of so many “Marchers” at Twickenham was something I will always remember. I kept thinking how much Rich would have enjoyed the challenge, the banter, the friendship and the fun. How proud he would be of what was achieved in his name, knowing it will help in the fight to ensure that in the future no one else will suffer from this disease.
I am in awe of what was achieved and thank you all for your efforts.
