Right to Play - Quins' Official Charity Partner
Support Quins' Official Charity Partner and Join Andy Gomarsall on the Ride of a Lifetime!
This summer, former England and Quins legend Andy Gomarsall will be riding 350 miles from the Stoop to Nantes in support of Quins official charity, Right To Play.
Right To Play is an international charity that improves the lives of children in some of the most disadvantaged areas of the world by using sport and play to promote education, development, health and peace. They have established themselves as a charity synonymous with unique and spectacular cycle tours and this year’s tour for 200 riders is no exception.
Not only will participants have the chance to ride with Andy and challenge themselves for a great cause, they will also get to watch the first stage of the Tour de France and meet Right To Play’s charity partner Mark Cavendish and Team HTC-Highroad.

Inspiring and supporting young people seriously injured through sport.
As an emerging talent in the world of rugby, Matt Hampson’s world was rocked by a serious spinal injury sustained while training with England U21s. The shock would last months, the impact forever. Paralyzed from the neck down Matt faced the toughest challenge of his life.
Drawing on the passion, grit and steely determination that defined him as a player, Matt saw his accident not as an end, but as a new beginning. Through the Matt Hampson Foundation, Matt offers hope and inspiration to young people with similar injuries, sharing his experiences and devoting his life to raising vital funds for those in need of support.
If you don't wish to take part but still want to sponsor someone then Quins fan Robert Steers is doing the walk, you can sponsor him at www.charitygiving.co.uk/robertsteerswfm2011
