Matt Hampson is an inspirational figure. Despite being paralysed from the neck down, after a training accident with England Under-21s, he leads a busy, active life, and remains completely involved with the game he loves. He still requires two fulltime carers, and cannot breathe without the aid of a ventilator. His physiotherapy bill alone comes to around £60,000 a year.
On May the 8th, representatives of all 12 Guinness Premiership clubs will be setting off from Rugby, in Warwickshire, to walk to Twickenham, for the Premiership final, on the 16th. As well as raising money for Matt's Trust Fund, they'll be fundraising for Special Effect - a charity which helps severely disabled children, and of which Matt is a patron - and 12 charities nominated by the clubs.
The Wasps-nominated charity is the Lawrence Dallaglio Foundation. In its first year, it is supporting Cancer Research, in memory of Lawrence's mother Eileen, who died of the disease, at the end of last year. She was a larger than life character, who is greatly missed.
