A simple day out: Freddie Mercury, three costume changes, a Rugby World Cup winner, an Ashes winner, an American stand-up, an Irish freestyle rapper, a Bake Off finalist, a mind reader, a polar explorer and a movie star.

Huge thanks to Knight Frank, our winners of the Matt Hampson Foundation 2026 Corporate Games, and to every team who came along and were such great eggs.

A warm welcome to Lewis Moody and his cycle squad, who arrived in Oakham this afternoon as part of their incredible challenge to raise awareness of Motor Neurone Disease (MND). 🚴‍♂️

It was great to see the team on their journey and hear more about the important cause they’re supporting. Every mile ridden helps shine a light on MND and the impact it has on so many lives.

From everyone at the Matt Hampson Foundation, we wish Lewis and the whole squad the very best of luck for the rest of the ride. Keep going, we’re cheering you on all the way! 💙

A huge thank you to @invictusactive for loaning us two sets of rollers for our beneficiaries training for the London Marathon! 🙌

With 7 of our beneficiaries taking part, and with the great British weather doing its usual thing 🌧️ having the indoor rollers available was absolutely essential for keeping training consistent and on track.

We’re so grateful for your support and generosity in helping our beneficiaries prepare for such an incredible challenge. Thank you for being part of their journey! 💙
