Teams take part in touch rugby for charity
The hotly-contested event, run annually by commercial property specialists at Lambert Smith Hampton and now in its 13th year, pits teams from property businesses in the region against each other to raise money for charity.
This year’s contest, held at Winchester Rugby Club, saw a record 19 teams competing in aid of Prostate Cancer UK, a charity chosen by LSH’s south coast team in Fareham and Southampton, in memory of their colleague Jeremy Young, who died from the disease.

‘As well as benefiting a good cause, the competition saw a day of friendly rivalry.
‘We’re grateful to all the Solent businesses who made this our biggest and best tournament yet.’
