Rugby Football Union (RFU) President His Honour Jeff Blackett and his wife Sally will walk 150 miles during a 15-day nationwide tour this autumn to raise money for the Injured Players Foundation (IPF) as part of the RFU’s official 150th Anniversary celebrations.
On 26th October, Cambridge University RFU and Eastern Counties RU will be hosting Jeff and Sally in and around Cambridge. Starting at the University Rugby Ground in Grange Road, they will be led on a tour of Cambridge colleges by Tony Rodgers, the former University Rugby Club coach and now a tour guide, before setting off for Homerton College, when Jeff will open the new sports facility, Cantabs RFC and Shelford RFC, finishing the day, and the 10 miles, at Cambridge RUFC.
The IPF - the RFU’s primary charity - provides support to any rugby player who sustains a spinal cord or brain injury while training or playing the game and, in addition, funds vital injury prevention research to keep everyone safer on the field.
