February 2010 - Liverymen sponsor teams from Rokeby School in City DipEleven boys from Rokeby School raised over £500 for the Lord Mayor's Appeal in a sponsored swim in the City. The two teams each swam 5,000 metres to raise funds for the Appeal which this year supports Pitch Perfect, a joint initiative of the London Symphony Orchestra and the Cricket Foundation to encourage young musicians and cricketers from London's most challenged boroughs. The boys and their sports teacher, Martyn White, were thanked personally by the Lord Mayor of the City of London, Alderman Nick Anstee, who himself swam the first 1,000 metres. The sponsorship for the Rokeby teams came from members of the Worshipful Company of Chartered Secretaries and Administrators, which has had a long association with the school. |
