Dinner with cricket ace

FORMER England cricketer Graeme Swann will entertain guests at a sports dinner in Shiplake.

The black-tie event has been organised by Henley Cricket Club and will take place at Shiplake College on Saturday, October 19, starting with a drinks reception in the great hall at 7pm.

The guests will then move to a marquee inside the sports hall for the three-course meal.

There will also be a live auction and a silent auction.

David Winter, the club’s fund-raising and sponsorship chairman, said: “Graeme Swann is going to talk about cricket and probably Strictly Come Dancing too. “It’s a fun event and everyone else enjoys it.”

The dinner is open to all and tickets cost £75 each. To book, email davidewinter
