It was great to host an evening last Thursday with Bankside Open Spaces Trust to showcase the exciting Bankside Marlborough Sports Garden project in the shadow of The Shard.

Thanks to my guests Olympic Paris Rowing Gold medallist James Rudkin, OLY, three times Olympian Steph Twell and London 2012 Olympian Abdul Buhari OLY for coming along to support us, as well as Smooth Radio’s Gary King and all our guests from the corporate and stakeholder world! Thanks Mike Diaper OBE for a passionate speech and London Marathon Foundation for their significant contribution on the funding target.
