Tackling youth homelessness - Chapman Taylor sponsors Landaid's tag rugby event in Bristol

When we were asked to help tackle youth homelessness by sponsoring LandAid's South West Tag Rugby tournament, we were determined to give it a Try.

Chapman Taylor's Bristol studio was co-sponsor, alongside Wring Group, of the Tag Rugby tournament held on 29th September at Cotham Rugby Club.

Eight teams, including a joint team from the sponsors, battled it out for the good cause of ending youth homelessness. We made it to the final, against Colliers, who took the victory. The event has so far raised nearly £7,000.

LandAid brings the property industry together to support charities delivering life-changing services for young people who are or have been homeless, or who are at risk of homelessness in the future. Through a unique network of corporate partners, they invest funding and expertise where they can achieve lasting impact.

Chapman Taylor's Bristol studio is celebrating its 10th Anniversary next week. We look forward to participating in many more events like this in the years to come!
