Drive launch the Dallaglio Foundation

‘8 Rocks’, set to be the high-end charity event of the year, kicks off the party season by celebrating the launch of the Dallaglio Foundation in unique and exclusive style. Strictly by invitation only and with guests including Prince Harry, Lord Coe and Jodie Kidd, who better to design and produce this quality event than yours truly. And all in aid of a cause close to our hearts, with the Foundation, established by former England Rugby captain Lawrence Dallaglio, this year raising funds for Cancer Research UK.

Incorporating a gladiatorial black and gold theme, fine champagne and sumptuous food were served as close to 600 guests were treated to an array of spectacular live entertainment, an auction of genuine money-can’t-buy prizes and the chance to party up close to major celebrities from screen, sport and music. Drive made sure that everyone was a VIP that night.

Performances from Lemar and Keane helped the event to raise an astounding £610,000, exceeding all expectations for its first year. As a result of this phenomenal success The Dallaglio Foundation has opted to support CRUK with the ‘8 Rocks’ event again next year.

The Dallaglio Foundation worked with Drive Productions on our inaugural  fundraising event, 8 Rocks. It was important to me that 8 Rocks would really raise the bar in terms of quality, entertainment and wow-factor. Drive produced the creative themes for 8 Rocks, sourced dancers and entertainers, as  well as delivering an extremely slick event on the night. 8 Rocks was an incredible evening, raising a staggering £610,000 for Cancer Research UK.

Lawrence Dallaglio, OBE
