Lister Communications are proud to announce that Richard Snell won the inaugural Gloucester Rugby Club Community Champion Award 2013. This prestigious award was sponsored by JS Facilities. Tasked with finding a shining star in the local community, Gloucestershire’s employers were asked to nominate an employee who goes that extra mile, does something special and is a true star! Richard fits that bill perfectly. As the Marketing Manager and Lister Charity Crew event manager he has worked tirelessly both in his day job as well as helping the community and fundraising in his spare time.

Hosted at Gloucester Rugby’s 1873 Suite on Wednesday 8th May, the Gloucester Rugby Club end of season Awards dinner was an opportunity for both the Club and the Community to recognise individuals who had made outstanding contributions both on and off the pitch.
The Community Champion award was presented to Richard by JS Facilities group manager John Search (pictured above). Other award winners included GRFC players Sione Kalamafoni winner of “Player of the Season” and Freddie Burns who won “Young Player of the Season”.
Three lucky finalists were invited to the Gloucester Rugby End of Season Awards Dinner at Kingsholm. Richard was presented with the Award as well as a signed Gloucester Rugby shirt.
