Tindall, the Patron of the charity which aims to assist servicemen and women in the transition from life in the forces back into civilian life through an education process met up with Sean to discuss the charity at Gloucester’s Hartpury College base – where Sean was formerly the Director of Rugby.
He commented, “ It should be a fun day with activities for the kids and a good old fashioned rugby occasion. It will be good to see some of the old guys back out there on the pitch.”
