OK – this is it. The one you’ve been waiting for. The. Big. One.
We are very proud to announce the launch party for T47 sports venue at London Bridge, and some party it will be. We are going to be inviting all sorts of London media people along, and our event will see money being raised for the extremely good cause of Kids Company who provide practical, emotional and educational support to vulnerable inner-city children and young people. A totally fun event which will be delivering real support to a fantastic London charity – beat that!
Camila Batmanghelidjh, founder of Kids Company comments,
“Participation in sport helps young people emotionally and educationally. These are the exact values Kids Company promotes and we are proud to be associated with the launch of such an exciting new venue for London.”
The event itself will be at T47 (of course!) from 6pm on Monday 15th March 2010, and will take the form of a Super Teams competition. A squad of male and female players will represent each team entering and the teams take each other on at:
- 5-a-side football
- high 5s netball
- dodgeball
- archery
- table tennis
Space in the competition is limited, and we are inviting some of our friends from across the London business community to make up the competing mixed teams. There will be an entry fee of £200 per team and we are asking teams to raise a matching amount through sponsorship. A hot meal for your squad will be provided afterwards in the T47 bar. All proceeds will go to Kids Company. Our support for Kids Company will then continue after the event, through the provision of T47 facilities for Kids Company use on a weekly basis.
If you are interested in entering or finding out more, please contact Andy Harding for further information – andy.harding@topcorner.co.uk, 020 7036 9917.
Dodgeball. It’s the sport of kings. Well, not actually kings. And it might not be a real sport.
