Exeter lawyers step out for Hospiscare

A team of rugby mad lawyers from Exeter based Michelmores Solicitors are theming their 10K walk on behalf of Hospiscare on the forthcoming international match at Sandy Park between England Saxons and Irish Wolfhounds.

The lawyers will sport white England or green Irish rugby shirts as they make the charity walk starting and finishing at Sandy Park, home of the Exeter Chiefs, where they will enjoy complimentary pints and pasties and get the chance of watching the Six Nations England v Ireland match.

Michelmores adopted Hospiscare for its preferred charity between 2009-2011, raising in excess of £101,000 during that time for the Exeter and East Devon based charity, mainly through proceeds from the firm’s annual charity run.

The Michelmores team paid a visit to Sandy Park where they met players Chris Bentley and Chris Budgen who handed out sample pasties.

Michelmores Solicitor, Ben Howels said: “We are delighted to support Hospiscare once again. The event is really a boys' day out and we’ll be having a lot of fun but we’ll also be taking our fundraising very seriously."
