Andrews Sykes sponsors the Aaron Lewis Foundation Rugby Tournament (ALF 10s)

As a company, we have a responsibility to give back to those less fortunate than ourselves.

Andrews Sykes is proud to sponsor the annual Aaron Foundation Rugby tournament, known as ALF 10s, which is the flagship fundraising event of the Aaron Lewis Foundation. Taking place at Westcliff Rugby Club on July 8, 2023, the tournament holds a special place in the hearts of both the local south-east Essex community and the wider rugby-playing public.

The Aaron Lewis Foundation is an all-volunteer charity committed to transforming the lives of service and ex-service personnel through the medium of sport and community action. We are continuing our relationship with Aaron Lewis Foundation by donating the sum of £3,000.

Andrews Sykes donates to army veteran charity

To start the year off on a positive note, we have continued to nurture our ongoing relationship with the Aaron Lewis Foundation. In late 2022, we pledged to make a Christmas donation of £5,000 and are very proud to support this wonderful initiative.

The Aaron Lewis foundation was set up in 2010 in memory of Aaron Lewis, who was tragically killed at the age of 26 while on an operation in Afghanistan. The charity initially began as a small forum for friends and family raise funds in Aaron’s memory. With unity and teamwork at its core, the charity grew rapidly into the principle funding source for the Commando Gunner Memorial in Plymouth. With funds still being donated after the memorial was completed, it became viable to create an all-volunteer charity which attained charitable status in 2013.
