David Parish, one of our former players, a long-time member of our club at Polson, is running the London Marathon in April in aid of SANDS, stillbirth and neonatal death charity.

This is a charity close to his heart, after he and his wife lost their twin boys 5 years ago to a late miscarriage.

To help raise funds for his running efforts, Dave has had signed shirts donated from many clubs across the country, from former Cornish All Blacks team members, which will be auctioned, by George Bone, at the last home game at Polson on Saturday 11th March.

Shirts to be auctioned include: Sale Sharks, Dragons, Bristol Bears, Northampton, Saracens, Cornish Pirates, a signed player shirt from Dave Ewers of Exeter Chiefs, Cornish All Blacks, along with a rugby ball signed by the Gloucester team and an Official England Rugby coat.

All funds raised will go to supporting this special charity who help so many.

If you can't make the auction  - or miss out and want to support anyway here is the Link https://sands.enthuse.com/pf/david-parish-3a017
