England Rugby Players visit Aspire

Members of the current England Rugby Team, along with Manager Martin Johnson, recently visited Aspire to find out more about the charity and meet some of the people that use the Centre.

Brian Carlin, Aspire's Chief Executive, took the players on a tour of the facilities and introduced him to some of our own rugby players - members of the successful London Wheelchair Rugby team.

The visit by Martin Johnson, Delon Armitage, Toby Flood, Harry Ellis, Nick Kennedy and Riki Flutey generated a huge amount of excitement around Aspire, with customers queuing up for autographs! But the players weren't put off and were really interested in finding out more about the wheelchair version of their sport.
