Exeter Chiefs Foundation host successful Christmas Lunch!

Exeter Chiefs Foundation Host Successful 2023 Christmas Lunch

Exeter Chiefs Foundation hosted a lively Christmas Lunch on Thursday, December 14 at Sandy Park which raised near a staggering £30,000.

The four-course festive lunch – which included festive entertainment, live auction, player Q&A and David Flatman as compere – was a great success as the Christmas period gets underway.

The lunch was hosted in partnership with the Wooden Spoon charity with 50% of the charity proceedings going to the charity and the remaining 50% being spread around 25 charities in Exeter by the Chiefs Foundation.

Demi Keenan, Head of Exeter Chiefs Foundation, was delighted with the outpouring of festive cheer at the event.

“The lunch went incredibly well – everyone had a wonderful time and I received so much positive feedback. The food was the best to date, the silent auction was successful, and our compere Flats was a superstar – as funny as ever!”
