Dame Laura and Sir Jason Kenny to host charity event in Harrogate

Dame Laura Kenny and Sir Jason Kenny.

Olympic champions Dame Laura Kenny and Sir Jason Kenny will be in Harrogate tomorrow (Friday) to host a special charity lunch.

The event will take place at Rudding Park and is set to bring together supporters, sponsors and sports fans for an afternoon of fundraising in aid of Martin House Children's Hospice.

The Kennys will join former rugby league player Jamie Jones-Buchanan and broadcaster Duncan Wood for a discussion about their sporting careers and achievements.

Alongside the lunch, a raffle will be held featuring prizes including a Berry’s diamond draw and signed sporting memorabilia.

Funds raised on the day will go directly to Martin House, which provides family-led care for children and young people with life-limiting conditions.


The event will support Martin House Children's Hospice.

Sponsors supporting the event include Doodle HR, Envirovent, Oak By Design, Business Waste UK, Clarrion, Michelle Headen Wealth, Rudding Park, Berrys, and LWC Drinks.

The day will also feature opportunities for photos with Dame Laura and Sir Jason, as well as live coverage on Your Harrogate Radio.

The event is expected to close at around 5pm.
