This year we are introducing online play. You can now choose to play in real life at home at your card table or use the online option that enables you to play with friends all over the world. The players pack will consist of a pack of cards ready with the compass stickers, score cards, instructions, the answer booklet and four pencils. The online players will download the 16 hands and play them using the BBO platform. Online players will also receive a copy of the answer booklet with instructions by email or you can watch Zeb’s online answer video.
To join the event please click on the button below and you will be able to purchase your player pack or online pack. We will send out the players pack in good time. The online option will be ready to download on the 16th November. This year we are allowing play on any day or time either on or after Thursday 16th November. If you wish to submit your results please ensure that they are with us no later than Thursday 23rd November using the email address below.

We are delighted to announce that we purchased 20 state of the art wheelchairs with the £12,000 that was raised at our 2022 Event.
The wheelchairs are already in use all over The Royal Marsden Hospital, Chelsea. We have had lots of positive feedback on how comfortable, easy to push and manoeuvrable they are.
A huge thank you from the Friends to all of you who played or donated last year.

Janie Gill has been volunteering with the Friends of the Royal Marsden, Chelsea for over eight years helping to run the cafe, and more recently the shop, which she has helped to keep open during much of lockdown.. Janie's passion in life is the game of bridge. Not only does she play, but she has become a brilliant teacher, as some of you will know. Her patience, and ability to explain this complex and exciting game in a clear and logical way is one of her main attributes, and she always makes the lessons challenging but fun. Due to her connection with the Friends Janie has kindly offered to support both Zeb and the Friends to make this a wonderful bridge experience.
