The first round of London South East 2 league for the 2018/19 season saw Heath host Charlton Park, one of the favourites for promotion having had a highly successful pre-season and a reputation for a big, effective forward pack.
The Club and its supporters were feeling very optimistic at kick off having just heard the exciting news that its main Club sponsor, Fairfax, had very generously agreed to support the Club’s vision to build a state of the art multi-sports pavilion at Whitemans Green that would provide the rugby club with a new Clubhouse and Fairfax Building Young Futures with a base from which to manage and activate educational activities for children under its care.
Earlier this year, Peter Chisholm MBE was appointed Education Consultant to work with Jon Ball, Managing Director at Fairfax in developing Fairfax Building Young Futures – an organisation dedicated to promoting blended learning opportunities for students. Fairfax’s commitment to the project is significant – providing practical expertise as well as considerable financial support – and the Heath Board has already started work hoping to turn their vision into reality by the start of the 2020/21 season.
