The London Broncos Foundation hosted its Annual Celebration of Community Rugby League which included Guest Speaker Jamie Jones-Buchanan, Special Guests from the London Broncos and the Community Club Awards.
Over 100 guests packed into a SOLD OUT venue at Belishi's at London Bridge for the Event, which also raised significant funds for the Foundation to continue to support Community Rugby League in London & South-East.
Congratulations to all the Award Winners and Nominees, who received their Awards from JJB. Their enormous contribution to Community Rugby League in the Region is recognised and celebrated. And many thanks to Jamie for giving fantastic insight into his views on rugby league and beyond.
