We are delighted to relaunch Norwich SportsAid with our new hosts and sponsors
Norwich City Football Club
Mark Lawrenson - Football Pundit, Former Liverpool Defender & Media Personality
Book a TableJoin us on Friday 14 November for the next SportsAid Eastern Sporting Lunch in Norwich – an afternoon of football, fundraising and insight with one of the game’s most recognisable voices.
We’re delighted to welcome Mark Lawrenson as our guest speaker – former Liverpool and Republic of Ireland defender, long-time Match of the Day pundit, and English Football Hall of Fame inductee.
Mark was a key part of Liverpool’s golden era in the 1980s, winning league titles, domestic cups and the European Cup. After hanging up his boots, he moved into broadcasting – becoming a BBC mainstay for over 30 years and covering six World Cups.
With sharp humour, deep insight, and countless stories from the pitch and the studio, Mark brings a unique and entertaining perspective on life in professional football – past and present.
All proceeds from the event go towards supporting the next generation of sporting talent across the region through SportsAid Eastern.
We’ve been honoured to host an impressive variety of guest speakers in recent years. See who else has generously given their time to make our lunches special occasions.
SportAid Eastern Relaunches in Norwich with New Sponsors and Exciting Energy
June marks an exciting new chapter as SportAid Eastern officially relaunches in Norwich – and what a way to kick things off. We’re proud to welcome a new wave of sponsors and supporters into the room, with FRP Advisory joining us as our official lunch hosts. Their involvement – along with continued support from respected names like Norwich City Football Club, Birkett’s Law, Barclays, HSBC, PURE, Mills & Reeve, Smith and Pinching, Back Fox Finance, and HCR Law – helps us build real momentum as we champion young sporting talent across the East of England. There’s a genuine buzz in the room about this event – the kind that comes from people connecting with purpose. Adding to the energy today is the brilliant Dennis Taylor, whose presence brings not only experience and stories, but a reminder of just how powerful sport can be in shaping futures. This relaunch in Norwich isn’t just a one-off. It’s a signal of what’s to come – more connection, more opportunity, and even greater impact through the SportAid Eastern network. A huge thank you to everyone. And if you’re curious about getting involved – as a sponsor, partner, or guest – now’s the perfect time to start the conversation – please contact us
