RUGBY fans can enjoy VIP treatment when Worcester Warriors and Acorns Children’s Hospice host their annual charity matchday this month.
Acorns and Warriors have teamed up to help fund the charity’s work caring for life limited and life threatened children.
The fundraiser, which is taking place on Saturday, February 15, will see Warriors face off against Bath Rugby at Sixways Stadium in the Gallagher Premiership.
Ticketholders will also be able to enjoy a Q&A with Warriors legends, a meal and the chance to win some prizes in the comfort of the Acorns charity lounge.
Amy Deakin, partnership fundraising manager at Acorns, said: “This is the ultimate rugby experience. You’ll get to see two of the region’s biggest clubs go head to head and enjoy the atmosphere of the North Stand as well as dine in style in our charity lounge – all while raising money for a fantastic cause.
