Apologies for the radio silence on Friday – but worry not, as we are pleased to confirm the XPROP team completed Day 2 of our ‘Premier 7’ #charitywalk. Having reassembled at Crystal Palace Football Club Selhurst Park on Friday morning, the team headed due north for 13 miles to West Ham United FC London Stadium. They were warmly welcomed pitch side and into the home team’s dressing room, and we were even joined by our good client Tom Hatfield. We then continued west towards Arsenal F.C Emirates Stadium, with Mark Thompson joining for a morale boosting finish northwards to Tottenham Hotspur Football Club Stadium. In total, the team walked approximately 39 miles over two days, or a whopping 82,000 steps!🐾 🐾 🐾 🐾 🐾 🐾 🐾 🐾 A big thank you to everyone who has kindly supported us and our charitable partners, Sal's Shoes. https://lnkd.in/e_Jz9-w7

This is my son Ben, Ben sadly lost his life in july 2022 whilst on holiday with his family This left all who new him devastated and empty. As a family we decided to raise money for the local rugby Leigh East the team Ben played for to allow all 14 years old's thru to and including open age to get heart screening which helped detect some abnormalities and saved other families go thru the same devastating loss as ourselves. Bens uncle and his friends are this year doing a grueling challenge to help raise money to do the same for Bens cousins team and other at the Golborne Parkside arlfc club. If any of my contacts would like to donate it would be really appreciated ,we are trying our best to detect heart abnormalities for the people who love playing the sport of rugby

Tasmanian greyhound racing clubs are deeply integrated into the local community, actively supporting a wide array of grassroots organisations and initiatives. In Hobart, the Greyhound Racing Club has embraced local sporting clubs by hosting sporting clubs challenge nights that benefit a variety of clubs across sports ranging from AFL to netball, offering both direct sponsorships and opportunities to win additional funding. Similarly, the Launceston Club enriches the community with race days tailored for aged care residents, creating memorable social experiences. Moreover, a collective initiative across Tasmanian clubs culminated in a generous $35,220 donation to the Ronald McDonald House Charity, significantly enhancing the support facilities for families of children undergoing medical treatments in Hobart. These initiatives underline the greyhound racing industry’s dedication to nurturing and giving back to the communities they operate in, reinforcing their role as key players in building and sustaining local community spirit.

Simon shared, “I started Love of the Game to drive awareness and funding of solutions that can prevent, diagnose, and treat concussion in sport, not just rugby, but all sports.” Check out the full article to learn from Simon about their mission and what’s next for the charity: https://lnkd.in/e96UhzFH #SparkBrilliance #LoveOfTheGame #ConcussionAwareness #SportsSafety #Charity Michelle Elkins Robin Dey Rob Frank

A Disappointing Reality in Charity Fundraising and the Football Community As someone who passionately advocates for protecting families and futures through estate planning, I’m compelled to share my disappointment with the response we’ve received from the professional football community regarding our upcoming charity event in aid of The Loving Legacies Foundation. Estate planning is a critical service, especially for families facing complex or additional SEN needs, ensuring that their loved ones are protected and provided for. This isn’t just a luxury—it’s essential. Sadly, with the exception of two clubs, not a single club from the UK’s top four leagues has offered any support for this event. And this is coming from a sector that thrives on fan loyalty, sponsorships, ticket sales, and TV rights. Football is a powerful industry with the resources to make an enormous difference in the lives of families who need help the most. It’s disheartening to see that these resources often don't extend to supporting charitable initiatives like ours, particularly when so many families could benefit. I urge my connections within the sports and business communities to reflect on this reality and consider stepping up to support causes that will one day affect us all. Estate planning is not just about numbers; it’s about people and peace of mind for our families—something we all deserve. If you, your organisation, or any contacts would like to get involved or simply learn more, please reach out. Together, we can make a difference. #CharityFootball #EstatePlanning #LovingLegaciesFoundation #Fundraising #CommunityResponsibility

So, a record-breaking #HongKongArbitrationWeek is approaching with various events jam-packed for the week (21-25 October 2024). If you are anything like me, you are already looking at all the events and developing a huge headache because let's be real, professional networking with hundreds of people and digesting all of the invaluable information you will be sure to receive at the millions of events (fine, I'm exaggerating, but there sure as heck are a lot of things squeezed into a span of a few days) is quite honestly more work and takes more out of you than actual work itself. Or, I am just old - likely the latter. But it needs to be done and what better time to do it than at one of the leading (and if I recall correctly, one of the first, if not the first) arbitration weeks worldwide. However, this post is not a plug (or gripe) for HKAW, which needs no further promotions since it has broken all previous registration records (kudos to the HKIAC team who have been working non-stop behind the scenes). Rather, this is a post for another record-breaking and over-subscribed event during the week, Hong Kong Arbitration Charity Ball! The Hong Kong Arbitration Charity Ball is a staple event started by the one and only Gavin Denton more than a decade ago and now organized by the Hong Kong Arbitration Charity Ball Committee, with the tremendous support of our amazing Coordinator, Ms. Maricel Somerville. Thanks to the dedication and support of the #HongKong legal community as well as the #InternationalArbitration Community in general, we are FULLY SOLD OUT of tables AND individual seats (though if you sweet talk Maricel, she can probably figure out how to squeeze one or two more of you in....after killing me for posting this). For those of you who are part of the 550 or so people attending this special evening and joining us onboard the Hong Kong Arbitration Charity Ball Orient Express, please do check out the website (www.hkacb.net) for details, not only for the evening but also the amazing raffle and auction prizes available. As always, proceeds from the evening will go to very deserving #HongKong based non-profits. This year's recipients are: Equal Justice 平義社 and Splash Foundation. So in summary - come thirsty, hungry, ready to mingle, and most importantly, be in your most generous mood! If you cannot attend but wish to still donate to these wonderful charities, there is a donation option on the website where you can make direct donations. Thomas Walsh, Christopher Boog, Elizabeth Chan (陳曉彤), John Choong, Thomas Fearis, Jocelyn Heng, Neil Kaplan, Wesley Pang, Tom Christopher Pröstler, Robert Rhoda, Cameron Sim, Emily Tillett, Matthew Townsend, Mei Yong.
We are thrilled to publish the list of prizes we have for the raffle portion of the evening! Super and Regular Raffle Tickets will be sold throughout the evening while our guests enjoy their trip on the Hong Kong Arbitration Charity Ball's Orient Express. Cash AND Credit Cards will be accepted. All proceeds will be donated to Equal Justice 平義社 and Splash Foundation A heartfelt thank you to all our prize sponsors for their generosity! Your support makes a difference. Julian Cohen, Hong Kong Sports Clinic, PURE Group, Wilson Tang, Freshfields, Tanner De Witt, Fencing Master, Burford Capital, H-KORE, HULA, Amanda Leigh Style, Marianne Esquivel Obena, Inspire Yoga HK, Wesley Pang, Thomas Walsh, Herbert Smith Freehills, Kirkland & Ellis
